Question about whether my laptop can run Dolphin/Games

Hi! So at this point in time I have Dolphin 4.0.2, and have already tried to run Twilight Princess. Frames were alright, averaging between 30-40, but the speed was hovering around 50% and downwards. I (stupidly) tinkered around with the settings and ended up making it run much much worse, and ended up uninstalling and reinstalling Dolphin to reset the settings. I now have default settings.

My question is; is there any way I will be able to make my laptop run twilight princess(GC version), skyward sword, and wind waker at at 80%->90%+ speed? (would be satisfied with 70%)

Graphic quality doesn't mean a whole lot to me, I'd just love to play the games. TP is the top priority, the other two I can live without playing. I'm desperately hoping there are some magical setting changes I can make to make everything work nicely.

My computer specs are:

Processor: A6-6310 APU, 1.80 GHz

RAM: 8.00GB, with 6.95GB usable

System type: x64 bit operating system and a x64 based processor

Graphics card: AMD Radeon R4 Graphics

OS: Windows 8

On a side note, if it is at all useful, upon starting up twilight princess, I get some yellow text saying that various settings from the emulator/game preferences (not sure) have been overridden by the game's ini, while I have no knowledge of how everything works, I believe that this may be the cause of my sub-par performance as one of the preferences which it stated was overridden was the speed hack for Zelda.

Also for what it's worth, I played TP up until entering Ordon (?) village with the horse and had the slow speed, so I'm not sure if the speed could be expected to get better/worse/not change.

Thanks in advance for anyone who can lend a hand!
