Dolphin on a Laptop?

[rpglord]

I know if I had that laptop I would be able to get all those games you mentioned except Last Story to run at playble speeds
Posible problems is you dont have all drivers installed properly,your cpu is overheating and then it wont run at 3ghz but ony 2 ghz which certanly is not enough.
Some laptops even wont boost your cpu to 3 ghz if you enable 660m gpu.
If this is one of those laptots,then you are screwed. You need to check with manufacturer.
Download cpu-z program and check cpu speed while playing games. Cpu speed should be around 3 ghz. If its not,then thats your problem.
If it is,post all your settings preferably as screenshoots

These games are really demanding. A powerful (overclocked) CPU is recommended.
NSMB will work just fine

Avoid third party Wiimotes. They suck like hell (with Dolphin)

Tried ur program(even though i was pretty much convinced it gets 3ghz, actually it is called Turbo boost technology) and when SMG was on i minimized and check the speed it was 3.1 Ghz with gtx on. It is labelled gaming laptop(don't know if such things exist though ) so it is supposed to be able to run simultaneously the gtx 660m and the TurboBoost tech.
Im pretty sure what I get can be described as playble, but I wanted it to be perfect. I mean mario sometimes run faster which is kinda annoying

Lenovo y580 is multimedia laptop . It has only 1 fansink for both CPU and GPU
Gaming laptop has dual fansink , 1 for CPU and 1 for GPU -> Run cool

misleading
