Dolphin crashing when mayflash is plugged in.

06-05-2015, 04:14 AM #1

I just got a new Mayflash 4-port adapter and attempted to set it up. I installed the proper driver, and ever since then, Dolphin crashes if the adapter is plugged in. I can run games at 100% speed, so I'm fairly sure it isn't a limitation my computer has. When the error occurs, the message just says "Dolphin has stopped working." with no further details. It works completely fine without the adapter plugged in. Any advice?

EDIT: Problem is gone, no worries.

How did you fix it? I'm having the same problem. It crashes on startup if the adapter is plugged in. If I plug it in after start up, it crashes as soon as it's plugged in.

It seems the driver for GCN adapter is now mandatory. I've uninstalled the driver for it for experimenting with something, but Dolphin will crash every time I plugged it in, so I reinstalled the driver for it.

This article explains how to install the driver for your adapter: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=How_to_use_the_Official_GameCube_Controller_Adapter_for_Wii_U_in_Dolphin
