Please help!! Dolphin doesn't work at all! - arniexd - 03-09-2011


I just started with dolphin on my new pc and it doesnt work. I tried everything, updated direct x dowloaded visual c++, followed the exact youtube guide with the exact same settings. But still, it doesn't work. Ive tried both mario galaxy 2 and new super mario bros. Im sure it should work, since I have all the system requirements: XFX Radeon HD 6870 and a near i7, i5 processor with 2.8 ghz and 8mb, 1tb hdd and 8gb of ram. Both of the games are iso's . When I use direct 3d11, it says: failed to enumerate adaptors. When I use direct 3d9 it says, failed to anitialize Direct3d. And in all cases dolphin closes automatically. Please help!!

Im sorry. Im really a newby to this. Sorry for asking again, but the first question is what kind of system I have. I have no idea what to chose. Integrated motherboard graphics?

Thank you so much!! It works perfectly in full hd! I just have one last question. Can i save real-time and can I run the game in the backround?


RE: Please help!! Dolphin doesn't work at all! - dannzen - 03-10-2011

you can save the games with "savestates" if you mean this with "in real-time"
but you shouldn't its not 100% safe
the chance to get a corrupte savefile is high...
just use the normal save options

i think you cant run the game on a second tv(monitor 2)
and browse the internet on the primäry
because dolphin needs to be the active application for controlls...
