Specifications? Sounds like your processor doesn't support SSE2.
If you have an AMD Athlon XP you can forget using Dolphin unless you buy a more recent motherboard and processor, the AMD Athlon XP lacks the SSE2 instruction set which is a hardware feature of the processor that is required by Dolphin else Dolphin will crash so you won't even be able to run Dolphin at lowly speeds. There are also some models of Semprons that don't support SSE2. Here are the processors that don't support SSE2 as far as I know: AMD Athlon XP Some models of AMD Sempron processors Anything else older than a Pentium 4 and Celeron D It could also be your video card that isn't supported by Dolphin. Dolphin requires a modern graphics card that supports at least Shader Model (Pixel/Vertex Shading) 2.0, if you have Intel integrated graphics (At least an 82945G) you will need to use the DX9 plugin since Intel integrated graphics don't properly support OpenGL. Of course I am just taking a wild guess, we will know for sure once you post the full details of your system specifications. 05-03-2010, 05:15 AM

Are you getting any error message besides the generic Windows app crash error? If you are receiving an error about the OpenGL plugin it probably means your GPU doesn't properly support OpenGL or have the required extensions to use the OpenGL plugin. In that case you would need to use the DirectX plugin.
Dolphin will also crash if you haven't updated DirectX 9 to the latest bi-monthly release, usually it will complain about not being able to init plugins and Dolphin will crash. We could determine if your PC is capable of running Dolphin if you post your full system specifications. |
