For some strange reason New Super Mario Bros Wii Runs slowly on my PC. The framerate's good (30-35 FPS), but the animation and gameplay is running slower then it should be. I know my PC isn't too slow because it has 8 cores clocked at 2Ghz+ and 8 GBs of RAM.
Is there a setting I should change?

I guess you should rethink that statement.
Maybe its the configuration of your dolphin...
As it was already said by neobrain , your CPU clock is too slow. I could end my post here, but I don't feel like arguing in this thread for the next two weeks so here it goes:
For DOlphin what matters most is CPU structure and clock, in that order.
Dolphin can only use two cores, three if you put Sound emulation in a third one, not that it helps so much, unless you are using LLE Backend, and even then not that much.
No, quadcore/multicore support can't be implemented, I'm sorry if this is going to make you kill yourself or whatever.
Sorry if it sounded too rude, I'm just too tired, if you read from a certain angle its useful information
Now I need some sleep.
Well to be fair NSMB doesn't require very much as far as dolphin is concerned. Unlike most games a 2 GHz core 2 duo is usually enough with the right settings for maintaining fullspeed all the time. However he hasn't given us any specific system specs or settings yet. For all we know it could be the settings or an integrated intel gpu that is causing it.
@SwimmyGreen
Give us your system specs (be specific) and screenshots of your settings in dolphin.

LLE recompiler and LLE interpreter are audio frontends, not backends.
I need to see the general and hacks tabs of your graphics settings. Also I need more specific specs. I'm guessing you are using integrated graphics but I can't be sure since dell lets you configure that laptop with discrete graphics if you want to.
Click the windows button on your task bar (also called the start button)
Type dxdiag into the box at the bottom
Run dxdiag.exe by clicking on it
Take screenshots of the system and display tabs
Srry, it only let me put up 5 attachments in a post, so I was meaning to post the rest, but I forgot, and now I cant acess the computer till morning.
The only other spec I remember right off is that it's a HD NDIVA graphics card and (obviously) that doesn't help.
I'll reply as soon as I can tommorow. Thanks for your help.
