Do what Zee said, download Realtemp to check your temperatures of your CPU when you are idling (not running anything except RealTemp) and when you're using Dolphin.
now that you mention it, it's kinda hot when i touch it... should... should i be worried... ?
I don't want to fool you but yes you should be worried. It's normal for Laptops to be a little warm when you touch it. But for Laptops to be hot, you should be careful.
Exactly how old is the Laptop?
well, it's not exactly too hot... i'd say it's a little warm... as for how old it is... i don't know... it belonged to my mom before... she gave it to me some months ago...
Oh OK, well be sure to check the temps like previously stated here just to make sure it's not burning.
Look, for the moment try not to play any major longer sessions and jeopardize anything.
If you have a chance save some money for something better, I see now that your specs is kinda on the minimum for playing games in Dolphin.
The max temp on that processor should be a 100 dc

I think I've never experienced anything like that in my life.
The highest any CPU have gone for me is 65 degrees Celsius and that was a crappy P4.
Man 100 DC, you could fry an egg on that ha ha.
Yeah i know but for most core 2 duo intel says anything above that is dangerous, my T2400 goes 85DC at full blast
85 DC, no kidding right.
Well I'll be damned and here I was worried that 65 was bad
gess i'd better get one of those aptop fans...
