Install the newest NIVIDIA driver an try again. This method should work.
Hello everyone... I cannot seem to get dolphin to run strong and im not real sure on the whole specs thing... I try to play harvest moon a wonderful life the gamecube game. It goes from 100% to 2% as soon as I walk out of the house... im using windows 7 dell inspinspiron 1545. X64 bit pentium® dual-core cpu. T4500 @ 2.30ghz 2300 mhz. total ram 2.96 gb... total virtual 5.92.... available physical 1.52 available virtual 3.89gb
Your laptop CPU is too weak , lack of GPU ...give up !!!
Intel Pentium mobile is really too weak, admin89 is right. There is no way.
You need a whole new notebook with much more modern components.
Ok ihaveaa desktop that's having thessame problem.it runs brink and fallout 3 beautifully but can't even run harvest moon? I think im doing something wrong. It hs amd e450 apu with radeon hd graphics, 1650 mhz, 2 cores, 2 logical, hats what it says under proccessor. Has 3gb ram 5.20 virtual
AMD APU e450 @ 1.65Ghz ?
Too weak . A single core Pentium 4 630 is faster than it
Don't compare emulation with pc game . Even if you could run crysis 3 or skyrim max settings , it doesn't mean the same result on dolphin
Recommend for Dolphin :
GC : i3/i5/i7 @ 2.5Ghz or Core 2 duo/Phenom II @ 3.0Ghz + Middle class GPU
Wii : i3/i5/i7 @ 3.0Ghz or Core 2 duo/Phenom II @ 3.4Ghz + Middle class GPU
Ok thanks

im going to try to burn the roms and play in my wii
I'm using an ATI Radeon HD 2400 and latest Dolphin with standard settings from the first post (CPU: AMD X4 640, 4 x 3 GHz). 1 x internal resolution is fast enough for 100 % speed but there are graphic bugs (zbuffer problems - vector objects are often not displayed in the right order, some objects are in front of others but should be in background).
A little bit outdated, your GPU. Did you try to install the latest AMD/ATI drivers?
