so my gamestop suprisingly had super mario galaxy 2 so i bought it and im so excited to play it i don't wanna use open gl because it is slower...
so all what i get is a black screen with perfect sound. i tried open gl and it works but of course the frame rate is slower

specs :
AMD Phenom II X4 940 Processor 3.0GHz
4096MB ddr2 RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT
1000 MB

(using wiimote through bluetooth)
Which Dolphin version?
the newest 2.0
i'm having the same troble and i am using 2.0 also. everyuthing works fine untill mario goes into the mushroom village? and bowser is huge and walking amon the villege and the screen goes blank but I can hear the audio
2.0 is not the newest. Have either of you tried a recent svn build from http://www.dolphin-emu.org/download.html ?
I haven't experienced any black screens in SMG2.

You need to switch to OpenGL plugin for boss sequences in both smg games. No way to fix it and it's a nvidia exclusive problem.

Otherwise you just get audio but screen will black out (like you described).
Ocean i have ATI graphic cards but trying what Billard26 said
ok thnx Smile ill just stick with open gl thanx everyone
