Hi. Im using Dolphin 4.0.

And my PC crashes after 10 minutes of play. I bought the PC 2 months ago, and it has fairly good components since its gaming PC. Why in the world is this going on? Ive played Splinter Cell Blacklist on it no problem, GTA 4 too.

Please, I hope you can help me. Thank you.


Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 8,00 GB

Name AMD Radeon R7 200 Series

Adapter RAM 1,00 GB (1.073.741.824 bytes)

Processor AMD FX™-4300 Quad-Core Processor, 3800 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 4 Logical Processor(s)

System Type x64-based PC

Operating system : Windows 8
Here is PC power and temperature info before Dolphin and during play. The one during play is taken 2 minutes before it crashed again.
Grab the latest from here: https://dolphin-emu.org/download/ (currently 4.0-5710 as of writing)

Thanks. But I dont get it - do I download newest version from lower list, or from the list on the top? I downloaded both and I have 2 Dolphins now, and the upper one is a RAR file which does not have graphic settings like I want it, its on default.

I have no experience in AMD chips, so maybe the voltage drop is normal, however if my mb was doing this I would be worried.

I think the 84 degrees C @ 2 mins before crashing is probably the big clue here.
I havent played Splinter Cell Blacklist for a while but when I did I played it no problem on medium or high settings, Mafia 2 on high settings too, and GTA 4. It never crashed. Im puzzled.

Anyone has more ideas? I appreciate all the help

Also, I get this error when my PC starts up and I dont know how to fix it (attach)

Also, Is there any way to monitor PC with some program so I could know detailes of what happened immediately before shut-down?

That's a browser toolbar, uninstall it.

Sort the temperature issue 1st (Clean the heatsink, fan, pc case). Are you are getting a BSOD code or is it just the heat ?

I dont receive BSOD code

So which is the one I need to install, the newest from lower list or upper list? https://dolphin-emu.org/download/

Thanks
