It might be worth a try, but I don't know if it would run any faster or be any simpler in a virtual machine than it would with wine. I just tried it that way and was able to play super mario sunshine at a max of 5 fps. I couldn't try any wii games because wine couldn't find the wiimote plugin. It may be slow because I didn't update directx properly, or missed some other step in the configuration, but I'm not too happy with the results so far. It probably can be done, but I think it would be simpler to try dolphin directly on xp than it would be to get wine configured for it. This guy is running dolphin on wine on a mac.

I might try it with xp on a different drive, but I'm hoping that the Linux version will work with my new video card. Let me know how the virtual machine works if you try it. If you decide to try it with wine, I found these instructions for installing directx.

There are other things you have to do to configure wine too, but I can't remember them all.
