Is my pc able to run the emulator ?

[elzouain]

Hi, I'm having problems with the emulator, if you could tell me what's wrong with my pc I'll appreciate it. This is the list of my pc parts:

Microsoft Windows Xp SP 3
Intel Pentium Dual-Core 2.0 GHz
2 GB Ram DDR2
512 MB Graphics card ATI Sapphire X1550
200 GB hard disk

The emulator is :
Dolphin SVN Build 2195

In the moment I start the emulation, i see how the characters of SMBMelee move slowly when there are more than two players, if I turn off the sound in the Dolphin, it runs a little faster and the floor graphics change to black.

try turn on Dual core support

Option>Configure>Enable Dual Core support

I did it and didn't work

are you using the Dx plugin? >_>

[Chaoscode]

looks like you answered your own question.

When I use that plugin the fps isn't faster than 10.0 and for just 2 secs it gets to 30

The speed of emulation heavily depends on processor speed, but not much on others. I also have 2.0 ghz dual core, and I get same results as you do. At current point, we can't do anymore to speed up dolphin.

Old school Graphics that you have here ! Only supports Ogl 2.0 , plus your Pentium (even dual core ) is not very efficient ^^
