It can happen after 10 seconds, or not at all during a session, and all points in between. There doesn't seem to be any discernible pattern to it.

I have tried underclocking memory, reducing or eliminating all overclocking, changing from D3D9, D3d11, and OpenGL, and any number of settings with video and sound.
Can anyone suggest another course of action?

1. Use the latest revision

2. Clear your shader cache if it happens (the files are in /User/Shadercache).

Thanks for the suggestion. I cleared the cache. At first, the game ran very slowly, as I guess it was rebuilding the shader caches to improve performance somehow.

The game ran pretty good for a bit, and then suddenly, POW! same problem.

Any other suggestions?

PS> Using the latest version already.

Sometimes strange stuff happens for me in linux too. I play the game, boom! Dolphin segfaults, welcome to desktop, i load the game, play as long as i want and nothing happens. It's absolutely random, can happen twice in 20 minutes or once in a few days, some games never crashed for me (Tatsunoko vs Capcom, Ikaruga, Metroid Prime 2 GC ).

But he's using windows.....

Well, I don't know what happened, but the build listed as 3.0-415-dirty doesn't crash on me. Have had several extended-play sessions at up to 4x native using DX11 and no problems at all.
Thanks for the suggestions and comments.
Cheers.
