Dolphin completely not working

[blazingwolf7]

When I try to access Pad Settings, I get an error and then Dolphin shuts down. The error is:
Error Loading Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll:can't read info

And if I try to run the game without creating pad settings, i get a series of errors which basically say the above error, then can't read any pad settings, then can't read wiimote settings. Any help? This is SVN 3661 btw, I just downloaded it off the website. I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium SP1.

get a newer build

I don't think a newer build would help him. Did you install vc++ and dx9 update? Read the stickies for more info.

every body is saying that is working better

[blazingwolf7]

Huh, well I fixed it, but now I think it's just because my graphics card sucks and can't use Opengl fully. It's a Intel 4 series express chipset family. That's why my opengl isn't working right? and is there anyway to fix it?

ati or nvidia works the best

[blazingwolf7]

Well I'm using a laptop so the Graphics card is integrated so no hope of changing that anytime soon, and the error I get is after I boot up the iso and it says: Cannot Create opengl renderer. You might be missing some required opengl extensions, check the logs for more info. My graphics card is apparently an Intel 4 Express chipset family.

Any help?

doesnt support opengl 2.1, u need to use a different computer or update the graphics card. alternatively u might be able to go with the old dx9 plugin but u have to use it with an older version of dolphin and game compatability is crap. its also very buggy.

get an older version that uses open gl 1.0... youll prolly have to search for it tho...its not an svn build...its older...

also make sure that the limit extensions in your graphic card control panel is set to off...that would cause that error msg too

There's really a build of dolphin that only uses opengl 1.0? What is it like dolphin 0.3?
