I have a similar problem...
Almost the same specs...
Tried to run Skyward Sword on the latest Dolphin for MAC version and it crashes at the intro.
Installed Windows 7 pro 64 bit today, but the game wont even load, all I get is a black screen with my specs...
Any solution for this?
Redump the game, if that does not work, Windows is king.

Thanks, but on Windows all I get is a black screen. On Mac at least it runs.
Will try to dump it again.
You shouldn't be getting a black screen with Windows, everyone else is able to play the game fine. It's a problem on your end or a bad game file.
I have this problem too. I originally couldn't get games to boot with the recent builds. I downloaded the 3.0 no updates build and with this I have been able to fully play through pikmin, majoras mask (via zelda collector's edition), and have started wind waker. No problems in those aside from minor glitches so far. I'm trying to play Paper Mario now, but from what I can gather 3.0-188 or later is needed to avoid graphical issues which make it unplayable. I've tried several recent builds (188, 200, 201, 204) but can't get anything besides the base 3.0 build to boot a game. Are there any workarounds or is bootcamp the easiest option?

isable "Skip EFB Access from CPU" to fix the pointer accuracy
- Disable "External Frame Buffer"
- Disable "Cache Display Lists"
- EFB Copies should be enabled only with the "Virtual" checkbox.
it runs at +30 FPS in native resolution and about 26fps at 720p
I could never got it to work on Windows 7 64 bit running on the same machine with bootcamp, I always get 0 FPS and a black screen.
