A) It sounds like he's running it on purpose

B) Gameboosters don't work. They are a gimmick.

Well honestly, after running my cleaners I've not yet run into the problem again even with the 3D Ripper software in the background.

Huh
what...im pretty sure razor gamebooster shuts down any process and improve gaming experience or am i wrong if so please do explain
Depending on how poorly setup your system is (how much bloatware you have installed) a "gamebooster" will either have no effect or a barely measurable effect on performance. If it does actually have a noticeable effect then something is severely wrong with your system.
Whatever a gamebooster does, a user can do the same via the task manager, as such they are considered a waste of space.
then i guess its for lazy people
Not far off
So is anyone going to tell this guy why his laptop isn't running Dolphin like it used to or a suggestion of how to fix it? Isn't that why this guy made this thread?

LOL I'm retarded I didn't see that he said he hadn't ran into the problem again forget what I said Wink
My only possible suggestion to him is to quickly find himself a copy of throttlestop, and a guide, and a HW Monitor, and attempt to make his i7 PC Max clock assuming it really is a gaming laptop and has a decent cooling system. That, and turn off the ripper, if it's multi-threaded, it'll drastically decrease your performance, if it takes up a lot of hardware power it'll do the same. Also, I suggest you lock threads to core first, but that might not help.

Though, I suppose it would help these guys more if they knew your processor model, however.
