Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hey there, to begin with i'll write my computer specs below here:
Intel Core2 Duo Processor E8500 @ 3,166 Ghz
ATI Radeon 4850 HD Graphics card
PCI Express RAM 2gb
Windows XP 32

I just recently got tipped off by a friend to try out the new legend of zelda, twilight princess game on the dolphin emulator. i configured everything properly in the config and graphics settings and the game starts just fine in the menu, i can choose the name for me and my horse and do the brightness test, but after that when the game is supposed to begin the first frame takes an eternity to load and according to the FPS overlay i have 0,1 FPS and VPS is 0/60. I have tried out the 4771 version and 4525.

At first i thought it wasn't loading at all since the audio was lagging and just replayed the same audio over and over, but when i kept it on for a while i could actually see the first frame after a few minutes, so it's basically loading REALLY slow.
I read that most emulators are supposed to work on 99% performance while running.
When i do ctrl+alt+delete and check the performance it's only working on 55%-60% while loading so my thought is that there is something wrong with my processor, but i have no problem at all in other games so yet again i'm clueless.

I would be pleased to hear your thoughts on this.
Best regards, krappen.

Try the very newest build.

It would be dumb to ask help for it when it has been fixed a long time ago.

Yes it would be dumb to ask for help when it has been fixed, and like i said i can't FIND that help on this site. I just went through all the 22 pages in the Twilight Princess thread and searched for several different parameters but was unable to find anything that helped me at all.
And as far as i can see r4771 IS the latest build for a 32bit windows. And yes, i've tried that 2.0 thingie too.

Can't find it on the site, it's not on the download-list, can you be a very kind person and link it to me? =)

Got the latest version of directx 9c which is the best one available for windows xp, i might consider changing to windows 7 later on if the problem persists but my friend who has worse components than me as well as windows xpcan play this game without any problems.
My graphic drivers are also the latest catalyst drivers.
