PC crashes when loading iso

Hello.

I recently downloaded Dolphin but can´t seem to get it to work.
Whenever I open an iso, the screen of my computer turns all black and unresponsive, forcing me to reset it.
So far, I only got 2 isos, "Resident Evil" and "Resident Evil Zero", so I don´t know if it´s iso related or computer related.
I tried different configurations, all with the same effect.

So that leaves me question... Is my computer good enough for running this emulator?

Thank you first hand for all the help and replies.

The CPU is pretty weak for Dolphin; you won't get fullspeed in a vast majority of games. The integrated graphics processor isn't even supported anymore as far as I know. You really need a more modern CPU (Ivy Bridge for example) and a dedicated GPU.

On recent Dolphin revisions, the emulator won't even run due to the IGP's being too outdated. I have an old computer with the same IGP, so I can tell you it's not going to work.

Buy a graphic card (Nvidia GT 640 / 650 / 660 or AMD 7750 / 7770 ...) and overclock your CPU to 3.4GHz or higher . You might need new power supply (PSU) if your current PSU not provide enough power for new graphic card & overclocking
Or you can spend 400$ for new PC as well http://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-new-gpu-and-cpu-help
