Dolphin crashing on ISO startup

Hello, I've been having issues with getting Dolphin to work properly with my dedicated graphics card. It works fine with integrated, but once I try to change it to use my Nvidia card, it will crash when I try to open an ISO or when I try to change graphics settings.

I've looked at all the other threads on this topic and tried just about every fix; I made sure Dolphin wasn't actually using my Nvidia card, I updated my drivers and then tried using beta drivers, I've switched Dolphin versions and no matter what I do I receive the same result.

My specs are:

Intel i7 3610QM Quad core @ 2.3 GHz
Windows 7
Dolphin version 3.5-367
Nvidia Geforce GT 640M LE
8 GBs of RAM

My apologies if I've forgotten to include any information.

Ah, I didn't think the game mattered because it was doing it when I went to change graphics settings it crashed there as well, but I tried both Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime Corruption and they both crash. They work on integrated graphics and it only crashes once I change Dolphin to work through dedicated graphics by either right clicking or through the Nvidia control panel.

Corruption does have a tendency to crash randomly but if you've pinned down the issue to your GPU, we'll work with that, pls post a screenshot of all your settings, it could also be a driver issue of some sort.

These are my settings, though I don't think that it matters because as I said it was crashing when I tried to open my graphics settings as well. I can only view these with the integrated graphics, otherwise it will crash. As far as my drivers go I had version 310.90 of the Nvidia drivers, but someone had said that Beta drivers might work so I tried changing and now I have 313.96 beta drivers, and it crashed on both drivers.

Try running it in a window not fullscreen.

I tried switching to windowed and it brought up a window saying "clearing code cache" before crashing this time.

Well with that piece of information I managed to figure out what my problem was, and it was that I hadn't tried setting Dolphin to run as administrator. Now my problem is fixed, thanks for your help everyone.

Instead of always running as admin, move the dolphin folder to a location that doesn't require administrative access to read.

I'm having the same problem. Whenever I try and load any game (I've tried it with three, Wii and Gamecube) I immediately get 'Dolphin.exe has stopped working' and the same thing happens when I try and open the Graphics Settings.

Running Dolphin with my laptop's Integrated graphics works but not with the graphics card so I'm guessing it's a driver issue (but I haven't experience any issues running any other applications).

I'm using Dolphin 3.5-367.

My specs are as follows:

Geforce GT 525M
Intel i5-2410M (2.40Ghz)
4GB RAM


Anyone have any idea of a fix for this problem?
