Controller detection issue when starting game

[njdrane]

I am new to Dolphin and attempting to play Melee. When starting Dolphin my controller is recognized as detected, but once I start the game the controller rapidly switched from detected to undetected.

Has any one had a similar issue? Recommendations for a possible solution?

Thank you

This is a known problem with certain third-party GameCube controller adapters. There is unfortunately no known fix right now other than switching to a different adapter (preferably official or Mayflash).
