Problem playing games

irishpirate01 · 04-10-2010, 04:27 AM #1

Everytime I try to start a game using dolphin, I get this error:

"Can't create opengl renderer. You might be missing some required extensions, check the logs for more info"

How do I get past this? Thanks for any input!!!!

If you don't even know how to find out what kind of hardware is in your PC, then how can you expect to be able to configure and use this emulator?

Ive downloaded the games and converted them .iso files. its just everytime i click play that error comes up. Now I have an HP Pavilion dv4 1465dx etertainment notebook pc with an intel graphics media accelerator 4500MHD. Does that help?

I guess you didn't bother to read the rules. Downloading games is illegal and this site does not support that sort of thing. You will most likely be banned soon. See you later.

Why are you being a jerk? I'm just asking for help about how to get past that error screen. If you have anything that can help, please post. If not, then leave. Thats all Im asking for.

You don't seem to understand. I'm not being a jerk. I'm actually being pretty decent about your illegal activity. The fact is that you didn't read the rules and blurted out that you downloaded games and since this site does not approve of piracy, no one is going to help you and you will be banned. It's not my rule, it's the sites rule.

Okay, so I screwed up. Im willing to accept that. But in the short time that I have before being banned, is there anything you could tell me that could help me out with my predicament?
