Dolphin post-emulation

01-21-2016, 05:14 PM #1

Hello, good morning.
Well, I tried to play Pokémon Gale of Darkness, one of my favorites games for NGC.
The emulation goes very smooth, no framedrop, no problems. But, when I try to stop/close the emulation all my windows become "weird".
When I click on any file, take sometime to select, or when I make a selection box at desktop and the lines still there (I must take a picture, because Screenshot ignore them: http://i.imgur.com/LSHPHUw.jpg).
And Dolphin screens become weird, taking sometime to show tabs:

And when you can click, the infos just display mix'd:

The only way to fix these display bugs is restarting my PC. :\

Can someone help me? Thanks.

Edit: If I press "PrintScreen" on my keyboard, the selection if fixed until I select something again. I can even drop down the options for Dolphin.
If I try too play anything (even game boy agmes), the FPS become very slow!!

Try unchecking the cheats box

How would a cheat code mess Dolphin GUI AFTER stopping the emulation?

Idk, maybe it messed with something in the memory that leaked, got stuck and then messed with the OS. I'm guessing this because the OP said that a fresh start of the OS doesn't have this issue.

Are you running the most recent (and perhaps non-beta) GPU drivers for your system? Does using a newer/older version of Dolphin fix this?

I don't know, but some stram games just "revert" the problem.
Un'checking the CHEAT box does not help. =(

YUUUP! To be honest, there is no driver for Win10.
I tried a old version, 3.7 If I'm not wrong, but same stuff~
I can revert the problem playing a STEAM game. Funny, no?

Thanks for your time, guys.

Does it help to try a different Graphics backend? Try OpenGL instead of Direct3D (or vice-versa). If it happens right away, also try the Software renderer (which isn't really meant for actually playing games with).

Using OpenGL fix'd it, then I can switch to D3D and no problem until now.
Thanks! <3
