dolphin wont start - MrSniffles - 06-04-2013
hello im new on the forum and i registrated me, because dophin wont start. I check directX, network frame 4.0,my graphic card, and the c++ packages, all were the latest versions. It is very strange, because when I start It, it shows up for some seconds in the task manager than it disappears, it works if i restart my computer completly but I dont want to do that every time

Try disabling your antivirus temporarily

Although i've never experienced this on dolphin, i've found the general culprit to processes disappearing from the task manager to be Windows update, a few of my apps experienced this problem, rolling back the update made everything go back to normal.

hm im thinking if i should use the windows disc to repair windows in generally. what do you think about it? my comuter has sometimes a few little errors . is that the problem?

And this automatically invalidates it as a potential problem how exactly?

It'd be easier to just format, but do so at your own risk, it'd be a nice way to clarify if this is an OS issue of some sort.

i dont think i will format but i realised that when i start my computer in secure mode dolphin will run with no problems it is damm weard
i know that kaspersky isnt the problem because i deactivated it

Hi Mr Sniffles, good news you can play on Dolphin again
Sucks that your computer isn't running properly
If it runs fine in windows safe mode it may be a driver issue? I googled your problem briefly and most of the issues that sounded similar to yours were on older versions of Windows and were many and varied. What version of Windows are you running?

If you can find out what "Secure Mode" means or does, it may provide insight into what the issue is....
