Ill give tech info first

ASUS G60jx Gaming Laptop
Win7 Premium
Intel i5 430 M
Nvidia GeForce GTS 360M
4GB RAM
One Built in Fan + Belkin Dual Fan Cooling Pad

Lastest Stable Dolphin Release 64bit 4.0.2
Updated GPU Drivers
Updated C++

Hello. Im having a strange and confusing problem running LOZ Wind Waker on Dolphin. When i first booted up this game about two weeks ago, it ran extremely slow (10-20fps). I was constantly messing with my GPU/CPU settings (overclocking and such), using optimization programs, reading the tweaks on the wiki, even lowering my resolution. anything that could give the slightest power to dolphin i tried.

At one point i got the game to run a good 25-30 fps. after about a day it started crashing periodically. and everytime i played it was more and more frequent. After this i returned my overclocked settings back to factory, and the problem persisted. My Laptop never overheated. I opened the back of my laptop and nothing was fried, either. i tried all types of settings in dolphin, sound and video, but nothing helps. i tried reinstalling dolphin, that just made it slow like it once was. I dont have any ideas of what to...

Idk if this helps, but it never crashed before i updated C++ and my GPU...

When it crashes i get 3 different response per plugin:
DX9: Black Screen/No message
DX11: PSTexture Encoder Failed at line (Numberiforgot)
OpenGL: The Display Driver Timed out and lost connection

EDIT: The first time i witnessed repetitive crashes was on Forest Haven island.
Also, if there is anything you would suggest i install or update ill try it

Are you using LLE audio, and if so, do you have LLE on thread selected? If so, that would be your problem.

Monitor your temperatures and make sure it isn't still overheating.

I don't think its overheating. ill check, but whether i run it immediately when my computer starts cold, or immediately again after it crashes it still takes the same amount of time to crash, no matter how hot or cold. even if it was, i don't think thats whats causing the problem...

The OpenGL error is suggesting your GPU drivers are failing.

Do you think when i recently updated my GPU Drivers that it cause this error to appear? I only updated my drivers BEFORE the crashing began.
