Every game I've tried so far works (mostly fine) the first time I run it, but anytime after I close it, the game will never work again. I've tried re downloading dolphin and refreshing my game files but they still won't work anymore.
You´d better update to W8.1... And don´t expect a lot from that CPU, is pretty weak.
DJBarry004: His CPU may have some Turbo Boost in it. I also have an Intel Core i5 2.60 Ghz but it can get to 3.2 Ghz when using Turbo Boost, which is quite a difference.
MetaXZ: could you provide some more information about those games that won't work anymore. Tell us everything you know, for example: Does the game crash and if so, when? , do you get black screen, does the game disappear from the game list, etc. Having all this information will give us an opportunity to look into your problem. what you said at first is not very clear. (don't worry, I see it a lot).
The problem is not the frecuency nor the brand, it´s the model. Mobile CPUs are simply too weak for Dolphin no matter what.
DJBarry, the only difference in a mobile CPU is that some things are slightly reduced. To say that all mobile CPUs are shit for dolphin is like to say that NVidia GPUs cannot exceed 1xIR in dolphin.
In other words, stop being such an idiot.
OP, delete your shadercache folder under documents/dolphin emulator. If games work again, but still only work once, then make sure you have Windows 8.1. Unfortunately, Microsoft seems to be constantly putting out updates that break dolphin, and unupdated 8.1 seems to work perfectly, so you might want to stay from updating fully until M$ releases another fix that un-breaks functionality.

So far I've only tried pokemon colosseum, pokemon xd and shadow the hedgehog. Each game worked pretty well the first time I loaded them but the next time after I select the game in dolphin the window will go black and say that "Dolphin.Exe has stopped working" I've tried deleting the "shader" folder in "Sys" but the games still won't work even one more time. I already have Windows 8.1
Yeah, I think using any other OS than Windows 8 would fix your issue.
No, don't delete "shaders". Go to Documents/Dolphin Emulator and delete "shadercache". Deleting "shaders" does a different thing entirely.

O.k. Deleting the shadercasche reset the problem. SO now I have to update or downgrade my OS?
If deleting ShaderCache fixes your problem, you may try reinstalling/updating your graphic drivers...
Why you guys are suggesting updating/downgrading OS? While it's true that MS likes to push updates that break things, this is something with the drivers, I think...
