Hello, I'm hiro98. It's the first time that I post on this forum. I've a problem: when I start to play Twilight Princess Rom with all of the needed settings, the game start to play but the windows remain black. What I do to fix the problem? My computer settings are in my signature.
Sorry for my bad English, I'm italian.

512 MB RAM for the main computer or just for the graphic card?

Your computer might be below the minimum requirement for Doplhin, especially for Twilight Princess.

You need a better PC for TP anyway Exclamation

That CPUZ check everything include your gfx card,Ram,CPU...but with your Pentium 4 you sure get lowest speed ever in 2D/3D game on dolphin
Upgrade to dualcore and Nvidia or Ati and Ram 2G atleast

My graphic card is Ati Radeon 9100 Family. What should I do to upgrade my graphic card to 2G?

You need a new PC. For Twilight Princess it is recommend to have a very fast CPU . The graphics card is less important, any modern average card will do.

Highlight of this build is the CPU again. The E8400 is a monster of an overclocker, capable of speeds beyond 4GHz. The large on-chip cache and raw power make this CPU the king of this class as no current AMD CPU can match its performance when it comes to Dolphin - not even a 955 Quad!
