Help a new Dolphin user

[misterp]

Hey guys just started using Dolphin today. Help a brotha out.

I obtained the iso for Metroid Prime 2, loaded it up in Dolphin, all the info seemed to be there, but when i try to boot it up, it just cuts to a black screen then the emulator says there is an error am i'm forced to shut it down. i have no idea whats happening. My laptop has plenty of hardware to run it, so i don't know what the problem is.

Thanks in advance.

Don't you think telling us the error message would be a good idea?
Also post your system specs.
