Dolphin crashes on my laptop, looking for help

[Barael]

I've been having trouble running GBC games mainly Fire Emblem PoR and SSBM. I'll be enjoying my game running smoothly and then out of nowhere it crashes. I'm thinking it might be my Intel HD 4000 card doing it or just my laptop overheating any thoughts?

Sounds like overheating, yeah. Check your temps with CoreTemp.

[Barael]

It's running at high 140s to 150 degrees fahrenheit, I've been waiting to see if it will crash again to see a final temp

[DefenderX]

The temps are okay (I hope, the the Fahrenheit <-> Celsius calculator is right ).

Well, can u post your Dolphin settings pls?

[Barael]

There they are. You've been very helpful by the way, thank you.

[DefenderX]

The settings are okay, so something should be wrong with your two games. Did u try to redump them?

[Barael]

I think that might of worked, thanks for the help!

I suppose you meant GC (or NGC/GCN)

The emulator stopped working or the game hanged/froze? If the emulator crashed this might be random crashes. Try to replay and see if it happens in the same place or not

I've had random crashes in Fire Emblem as well. It's likely just DSP HLE being a steaming pile of crap, though; try either LLE audio or a development version of Dolphin that has new-ax-hle (3.5-78 and up). http://dolphin-emu.org/download/

Intel HD 4000... if your using 1x IR to 1.5x IR it shouldn't be the graphics. What Dolphin build are you using?
