Can you try different version of dolphin? does it crash?

my DxDiagnostic says it has 8 CPU cores and yes ive tried previous versions

It says 8 because of (seriously, do I have to repeat this?) HyperThreading. Try disabling that and then run your games again.

That is what I said earlier in one of my post (hyperthreading) ... but in regards with hyperthreading, on my laptop (4700mq on my sig), its working fine (hyperthreading enabled)... I can only speculate that it may be a bad config, or driver issue... stable releases like 4.0.2 should have minimal problems (it wouldn't be called stable if its problematic )

I turned it off long ago though.

Make sure you have latest drivers for your GPU. Not the very latest though since there´s a crashing issue with Dolphin when using the latest driver. (This is NVidia-specific).

I'm actually above the very latest i'm in the beta for the next driver so i'm screwed then :/
