REALLY bad FPS in Monster Hunter Tri?

[Origination]

So, I'm trying to play Monster Hunter Tri with Dolphin. At the menus, it's fine. Works great, no errors. Until I get to the character creation screen. Then my FPS drops down to 1fps. I looked at the wiki, and my specs don't seem like they're bad enough for this game. Shouldn't I be able to run this? Am I doing something wrong?
