Hey guys. I've recently been trying to play Super Paper Mario on my computer and have been having pretty major issues. Dolphin won't load the file (Off of Direct3D) saying, "Failed to find a supported video mode" and then "Make sure your video card supports at least D3D 10.0". I've tried running Dolphin through OpenGL but my graphics card doesn't even support OpenGl 2.0! Anybody know any work arounds? Thanks for reading

Umm, Dolphin is correct, your graphics card doesn't even support OGL 2.0. You can't use any recent versions. Try maybe 3.0?

It's onboard graphic which is a chip , not a card . Get yourself a graphic card !
Sth like EVGA GTX 750 will do but your CPU ~ Intel Core 2 Quad @ 2.5GHz is too old and weak for most games . In other words , most games won't be playable unless you upgrade to a whole new PC

Yeah, I do need to get a new PC. I was debating on getting a real graphics card, but decided there was no point since I'm saving a ton of money for a nice rig. I have actually found methods to get games to work (Such as games that run off of Source like TF2 and Gmod) by changing their DirectX level down to 8.1 and it worked fine. Thought I could try something similar to Dolphin. Thanks for the info though.

Uh, no. Oldest D3D version that Dolphin -used to- support is 9.0C.
