I wanted to try out your emulator but when I try to open a file I get three errors first it says:
Error loading Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll: can't read info

then it says:
Can't init any PAD Plugins

then it says:
Couldn't init the core.
Check your configuration.

When I try to configure the Pad plugins I get
Error loading Plugins/Plugin_PadSimple.dll: can't read info

except this time its worst because the program stops responding and windows has to shut it down.

The weird thing is that all the plugins are in the Plugins folder:
Plugin_DSP_HLE.dll
Plugin_DSP_LLE.dll
Plugin_nJoy_SDL.dll
Plugin_PadSimple.dll
Plugin_VideoDX9.dll
Plugin_VideoOGL.dll
Plugin_Wiimote.dll

In addition I went into Options-->Configure and checked the Dual-Core box and it still doesn't work.

Lastly, if I go Options-->Configure, then click on the Plugins tab, I see 4 boxes Graphics, DSP, Pad, and Wiimote (ps. I don't really care about Wii I just want to play Gamecube). Anyway, Dolphin OpenGL is there, and so is Dolphin DSP-HLE Plugin but the Pad box is blank. In fact the drop-down menu is also completely blank even though as I mentioned before all the plugins are in the folder.

Please I hope someone can help me: here are my system specs:
HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC
Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1, 64-bit operating system
Intel Centrino 2 (Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T9600 @ 2.80 GHz)
4.00 GB RAM
DirectX 10.0

NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT
ForceWare: 175.53
Total Available graphics memory 2302 MB
Dedicated video memory 512 MB
System Video Memory 0 MB (I don't understand this...)
Shared System Memory 1790 MB
IRQ 16
Bus: PCI Express x16

PHILIPS Retractable Controller SGC2909

I tried to be as thorough as possible hope it helps.
