This totally works on windows 7 but you will need two things:

1. You will need to have administrator privileges else it creates many files which the program itself cant access and things turn out pretty tough.

2. You will have to set a system environment variable for "NDK_ROOT" in your computer. Here is an example of how to do so - http://www.windows7hacker.com/index.php/2010/05/how-to-addedit-environment-variables-in-windows-7/

This worked for me after one week of pain and efforts. I hope this works for you in the first instance. Good Luck.. :)
