Alright, how do I get that?
and thanks for the help so far!

well if the latest driver doesn't have full support then there's no way you could get it to be full (unless you buy another video card Tongue)
Buy a new graphics card. OpenGL is hardware related

okay, based on what i have read so far, dolphin needs opengl 2.1 or directx 9.0 to run properly.

in order to meet these requirements, do i need to update my driver? it my driver even compatible with dolphin in the first place? this is my driver's model:

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 4500MHD

it came with my intel centrino toshiba laptop, model:

satellite a505-s6960

i believe one of the earlier posts recommended someone to change their graphics card. that is not possible with me because i have a laptop, so can someone please clarify if my graphics card is compatible with dolphin.

thank you for any and all your help.
Intel GMA is really bad for dolphin .It can't fully support openGL(not work at all) ,you should install directx June 2010 and stick with directx 9 plugin but the speed will slow like hell ...graphic error...

yes, you are most certainly correct. at least i know that it works. but isnt there a button that you can press to speed up the emulation? thank you.
