Which platform (Windows or Mac OSX)?

DId the installation complete? (Are there any error messages displayed anywhere?)

How are  you starting the app? Run->Run (on OSX) or Debug->Run (Visual Studio, IIRC)? Or have you just deployed the app to the emulator (e.g. Run->Upload to Device in OSX)?

If you see the normal Home screen in your emulator, click the "apps" menu (which looks like a 4x4 grid of dots on my N1), look for the "MonoAndroidApplication1" icon, and click it. Does anything happen?

If the screen goes blank, then shows a dialog saying that the app exited unexpectedly, could you provide the `adb logcat` output?
