"xyz isn't working. How do I fix it ......" as the whole thread.

After asking A question, state in the thread or in your sig your PC specs including,

1. Operating System
2. Complete CPU name (Ex. Intel E7400 @ 2.8 ghz not Core2duo @ 2.8ghz)
3. GPU
4. Version of Dolphin used

Also if you having a problem with a game, state options you have chosen in dolphin as a check for those trying to help you.

''...i dunno cpu/gpu?''
go to your computer properties or something(i think the info is in some directories, /cpuinfo or something like that, just google how to read pc specs on linux, i'm pretty sure it has got something) and give us what you read
You loaded NSMBW and what didn't work?
Controls?
No screen?
Sound?

Hmm, I assume your graphics card is a onboard one. You can forget to play on that one (I can't even play with my onboard 3200 HD with ~20 FPS).
Your processor.... Well... If it's really 800 MHz as the report says... you're doomed.

I hope it's a laptop and that you can connect it to a power supply to get more speed from your CPU, but that is about it.
if you don't know your computer specs stop trying to use dolphin lol.
