Hi! New poster here!
Until 6 months ago I played Dolphin on my PC (Ryzen 7 1700 @3.9, Vega 64, 16GB DDR4, SSD NVMe, Win10 Pro x64) without any problem. I stopped playing Dolphin for a couple of months, as I bought some great PC games.
In that time I also upgraded my CPU to a Ryzen 7 2700X (stock) and there were at least 10 different GPU drivers and 5 motherboard BIOSes upgrades...
I updated Dolphin a month ago without even trying to start it (I installed it from scratch and unfortunately deleted the old version), and then no Wii or GC game starts. After it compiled the shaders there's either a black screen if I start games on full screen or a black window, and core 5 of my CPU is at 100% usage. Nothing happens. I can close the window, but then Dolphin freezes. This happens even today, with different GPU drivers and dolphin versions. I tried OpenGL, Vulkan, DirectX 11 and even software renderer, but it doesn't work.......
I tried it with Super Mario Sunshine, Link's Crossbow Training, Mario Kart Wii, Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort (the games I always played even with my real Wii until I switched to Dolphin).
What can I do?
By the way, I enabled Dual Core, but disabling it doesn't change anything. I play with a real Wiimote+Nunchuck for Wii and with a knockoff Xbox One controller for GC.
Any help is appreciated.

EDIT: I also tried the various shader compiling methods... Nothing.
