FPS drop carrying over to PC games

Hi, I've been using Dolphin for a week now, for Metroid Prime 1 & 2, and obviously experienced FPS drops playing those games, which I expected and disregarded as normal, from what I've read. Now I'm playing other PC games such as WoW, Crysis and Deus Ex HR and I experience long drops like those that were occurring while playing Dolphin, which never happened before with those games, at least not the length (2-3mins or longer) they last now. Might I have changed something in the Dolphin config that could affect my whole PC?

Sounds like it might be something hardware related. Check your temperatures to make sure they aren't too high, both when playing Dolphin and PC games. Use Real Temp or CoreTemp to get them. It could also be another component of your PC other than the CPU is having trouble. Make sure nothing's broken, or in the process of breaking down.
