Random crashes and I'm running latest version + good spec

Hey everyone,

Getting random crashes on 2 games and I bet others. Extremely frustrating and can't play games basically Sad

I just keep getting random 'Windows not responding force close' error messages.

I have Dolphin 4.01 from the website and I have a good machine. i7 3630qm, 8gb ram, nvidia 650m.

1. Super Mario Galaxy and Lego Star Wars 3
2. See settings here: http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/2809/l62y.jpg

Any ideas what to do?

1- List of games.

2- Screenshots of your settings.

3- Probably the exceptioninfo.txt file.

You are using a very old and unofficial build if i judge by your settings. Use the latest official version from here:

I just downloaded 4.01 from that exact website and I just keep getting random 'Windows not responding force close' error messages.

Check for windows updates, update the latest version of visual c++, download and run directx web updater

Do you have any open processes in background? They may be slowing your PC down. Check the temps too.

I am on razer game booster mode, so I have a lot of processes closed. Only other application I have open is Steam really and Chrome.

And the temps? (Use CoreTemp or RealTemp for that).

You are not on the official 4.0.1. Dolphin hasnt used plug-ins in a VERY long time to my knowledge.

Please click and install this link directly: http://dl-mirror.dolphin-emu.org/4.0.1/d...-4.0.1.exe

This is for the 32 bit Windows installer Smile
