Hi, so I'm completely new to using Dolphin Emulator so I'm hoping that it's something completely obvious that I'm missing. So far Windwaker and Twilight Princess are the only games I've tried and they both run at an abysmally low fps, before I try any more games I figured I'd make an account here and see if anyone could offer me any help. Thanks in advance!

Your computer is pretty weak for these games. They are fairly demanding. You can try using another graphics backend, like opengl & make sure your graphics card is set to high performance. You're already using basic default settings, so not much I can help you with there

Ah, I was worried that my computer was the problem. Thanks though! I'll try that out.
Wind Waker actually shouldn´t be THAT demanding... not that much.
Dolphin 4.0.2 is no longer supported, neither are the X86 builds.
What Windows version you´re using?
If possible, upgrade your OS to Windows X64.
Dolphin x64 is 50 ~ 80% faster than x86. In addition, you get the advantages of version 5.0.
Ooops, didn't catch he was running x86 & an old version of Dolphin. Otherwise I woulda said we didn't support older versions :O
Ooooh ok, I'll try downloading the x64 version, is 5.0 the latest? also I'm running windows 10
Use a dev version instead of 5.0 stable.
So I downloaded Dolphin 5.0-2981 x64, and I have a 64 bit OS. I'm still having fps problems, it's definitely improved but it's still making playing the games difficult
Make sure you have Windows Power Options set to High Performance
