I've been playing the Thousand Year Door and everything is great! It's not slow, there are no graphical bugs to speak of, in fact, it looks even better than I remember, but, every now again, completely independent from what I'm doing in game, it will crash. Or rather I'll get an error message, "Dolphin.exe has stopped working" from Windows.
Is there a way that I can fix this?
BTW, I'm using
Windows 8.1 x64
Intel Core i5-4670K @ 3.4Gh
8 GB Ram
Try updating to the latest version
. . . I cannot believe that worked. The only reason that I was using the 4.0.2 one was because it was the latest stable version. Thanks for the help!

Just remember one thing, though a new revision solved your problem with TTYOD, it can cause trouble and problems for you in other games.
When using Dolphin and all it's versions and revisions it's a trial and error thing.
If I'm understanding you correctly, does that mean for different games I may be using different revisions?

Yes that is correct and for as long as I have been around using Dolphin since r3972 it has always been like this.
I'm currently using 4.0.2 though because newer revisions gave me trouble.
While 4.0.2 might be a little old, it's still a solid release in my book, and I'm that kind of guy that prefers official stable releases before revisions.
Newer versions have hundreds of bugs fixed and are generally preferred. 4.02 has literally hundreds of unfixed issues because Dolphin does not generally backport changes. Generally nobody will support you playing games with year old buggy versions.

You are wrong, latest official stable releases are supported unless you have changed this again.
I once had this discussion with Starscream so I know what I'm talking about.
Latest official stable release and latest revisions are supported, nothing else that's what I'm told.
EDIT:
And for the record, 4.0.2 ain't buggy at all, at least not for me.
Besides it's listed under
stable versions in the downloads page for a reason.
lol, arguing with Fiora, who basically fixed tons of bugs from 4.02. The first thing most of our support staff tells people to do is "try the latest dev build."
This isn't like the 2.0/3.0 era where we'd have broken builds every couple versions. It only happens once or twice a month now

I know, I was around back then and I'm not complaining about what she has done to the project.
I have used recent revisions and I'm glad about all the great things that have happened since 4.0.2.
But for me, 4.0.2 is an official stable release and should be supported, because there is people like me for some reason have problems with the latest revisions and have to fallback to to the official release.
I'm eagerly anticipating the next official release though.
