Um, I don't know if you noticed but read my screen name, I am NOT a troll. No sense of humor at all really?
No but in all honesty, this thing is driving me nuts. Alright, if you REALLY have to know what I'm trying to run, and I'm gonna say this in advance, "Shut up, you've probably been addicted to worse games"
Crystal Defenders
New Super Mario Bros.
and I'm going to try out Mario Sunshine next.
If its a compatibility issue, fine, I'm wrong, FML, ect, but I don't think thats the whole case, and yes, maybe I am being a bit crazy, but I just want the stupid thing to work! I've read so much on how amazing it is but all I've been getting is crap.
Hey why do they call it an XBOX 360? Because if I hear that lame internet meme again, I'm gonna pick one up, do a 360 and bash it against the f-ing wall, I AM NOT A TROLL!
No, you're a spammer yelling blasphemy.
List your specs or GTFO!
Intel Pentium Dual CPU E2220 @ 2.40 ghz
Ram = 2g
System = 32 bit
Intel G33/G31 Express Chipset Family
I've looked into my 3D settings It says in big letters (OPENGL) above that section, but I really don't see anything that I think should be changed or that I would want to change. I can't even run the OPENGL driver period, I've given up on that a while ago, I've just been trying to make the Direct3D9 to work.
Still though, I just really wish this thing would WORK..... BETTER.
Trying to run Dolphin in an integrated GPU is never advisable. It does explain why you can't get OpenGL to work though: the integrated Intel chipsets only work with Direct3D9.
CPU and RAM should be fine.
Could you make some screenshots of your config in Dolphin, and of the errors it produces?
Sadly that's as far as I can go to help you for now. I only have one 32 bit system capable of running Dolphin, and that one is kind of in tatters at the moment (to say the least). For the rest, I'm on 64 bit, so there's not much worth comparing between our systems.
EDIT: I just realized something else. When you boot your laptop, try to enter the BIOS and allocate more memory to your graphics. I once had a laptop running on 32 mb instead of the usual 128 mb, made all the difference in the world!
You need a better video card than that, so as it turns out you're just like the rest of the fools who do not read and go on rants because they do not read or know what they're doing. My first comment was correct.
Emulators should never be in the hands of novices.
Your problem is fixable, but i refuse to waste my time here.
Anyone willing to provide assistance of any kind to said troll should do so with their own discretion.
I'm starting to agree with Diddy more and more as time goes by... something must be wrong here.

See thats the thing, and I've said it before, I've gotten to the point where I just don't see any errors, I just get a black screen, sound, and the game seems to respond to the wii remote, I don't know what I'm clicking but I know its responding.
Sometimes, checking or un-checking boxes, won't even effect this at all. The only thing that really gives me an error is when I check the box that says .... Enable CPU/EFB access So I just usually leave that unmarked so I don't get an error, (makes sense?) but when I do check it I get the error....FBManager:Creat Fail
epth Color Texture.
Not sure if this has anything to do with my problem at all, I can simply just make the error go away by not checking it, but I still have this black void of nothingness staring me in the face, eating my soul.

Do I need a better video card, or do people need to try harder at making things compatible that actually work? Simple troubleshooting fix = go buy a new video card.
Way to be a problem solver, dick.
You can't make something that is not capable of running the game compatible no matter what you do. It's just not possible. The card just does not have the technology to run the games. Understand? That is the root of your insanity.
You need CPU/EFB access for some games, so if that doesn't work, your system has some issues with the emulator. From what you're saying here, and with that error taken into account, it looks like your GPU just isn't capable of displaying Dolphin's output. How much memory is allocated to your video card, and what pixel shader is supported? If I recall correctly, Dolphin needs at least 128 mb and pixel shader 2.0 to run.
Also, there is a thread on these forums somewhere that lists games that run well on low-spec systems. With a GPU like yours, I'd advise you to get your hands on some of the lightest games (preferably GameCube games, they tend to be a bit lighter on your computer) on there and test them. Your problem is defenitally in the graphics department, so if those games still only give you that black screen, you need a better graphics card. Same reason why some Xbox games don't run on Xbox 360: CPU and memory are much faster etc. than the original system, but the GPU is so very different that it becomes a problem.

Can't you just help developers in optimizing things with your own efforts instead of bitching around? Even people who "offend" you here will be very happy if you do this. If not... well, white crow is a white crow, darkness be your witness
