Hi, I'm new in the forum, so sorry if there is another thread like this but I didn't find one so...
Well my problem is: I bought a Notebook and downloaded Dolphin to test in it...
In the first days of use the emulator ran flawlessly, in a moderate spec. But now, two days after I last played it, the emulator got some serious slowdowns. It's unplayable as it is right now (Speed is 50%, 15FPS)... and run like this even in the most minimum specs!
The Notebook is new so I didn't installed many things in it yet (Just Winrar, Google Chrome and Daemon Tools)... the only updates I got was by Windows Update. I'm using a Windows 8 Pro x64, and I'm thinking the problem is in the OS... does Dolphin have any issue with win 8?? Or any update of this OS??!
The specs of the notebook are:
CPU: Core i7 3630qm (2,4 Ghz, 8 threads)
GPU: Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Yeah, its a crappy integrated gpu... but do the job for now ^^)
RAM: 6Gb
OS: Windows 8 Professional x64 (again...)
The manufacter of the notebook is Samsung...
And worth noting that I got the exact same problem with the Playstation 2 emulator, PCSX2... at first it ran smoothly, now is barely at half speed ¬¬
I'm considering putting Windows 7 here just to test if the problem is really with win8... but I want the opinion of someone else...
Does anyone know what could it be?!?
Thanks in advance... and sorry for any typo, I'm not a native english speaker...
