Random Crashes??

Hey peeps.
I downloaded the dolphin emulator a few hours ago and I can't seem to figure out what's giving me problems.
The emulator crashes every time, no matter what, after like 10-15 minutes gaming.
It either says it stopped working, or it just crashes completely without any warnings.
Now I've tried some things like running in admin, running in compatibility mode, changing install folders (which was suggested somewhere else on the forum) but none of them seem to do the job for me Sad

I'm at a dead end here, and hope someone can help me.

System specs:

Intel Core i7-3770K CPU @ 3.50GHz
Nvidia 460GTX
8GB RAM

OS: Windows 8 x64
Using Dolphin 4.0.1
If any other hardware or software is of need ask, and I'll post Smile

Did what? 4.0.2, or a dev build?

Try these:
1) Upgrade to Windows 8.1. Its a free upgrade
2) Update drivers, Windows updates, DirectX Web updater (some components may be missing), and latest version of Visual C++
3) Make sure under Power Management in Windows you're running in High Performance, and are plugged in to power
4) Use the OpenGL backend on one of the latest dev builds, as it is faster than D3D. The dev builds have speed improvements that 4.0.1/4.0.2 don't have (but they have some extra bugs that are being fixed before the next major release). The current dev build is 4.0-658 (which actually makes the default backend OpenGL).
