tutorial or guide for newbies

[enricong]

I'm new to dolphin trying to the wii emulator. Is there a guide or tutorial for all the settings to get a game running? All I have seen is some faqs and a couple random stickies. I found a guide for ripping the game from my wii. I assume I did it correctly because I was able to get it to load in dolphin, however it runs extremely slow, maybe 4-8fps, especially when there is a dialog up. I get maybe a half second lag on moving the pointer or pressing a button. I've got an Athlon64 X2 4200 2.2ghz with a Geforce 7900 which seems adequate, so I'm guessing that my configuration is wrong.
