System not good enough for Dolphin? (SLOVED) - silkygrooves - 01-03-2011
Sorry for posting this here, but for some strange reason I can't post in the support forum. It says I don't have permission to access this page. I'm wanting to know if my system is decent enough to run dolphin because I tried to run Luigi's Mansion using the configuration guide (Direct3d9) and it played at 7fps. I tried the official 2.0 release 32-bit and svn build r6723 32-bit, but neither worked. Is it my system?

Your Graphics Card is too weak.

Thanks fo the fast reply. What graphics card do you recommend using? My motherboard can have PCI, PCI-X and PCI-8x cards.
Nevermind. I see the getting started with dolphin thread now. It didn't show up in internet explorer 8.
