Problem with crashing in 4.0.1 - afk4662 - 11-20-2013
It's some sort of Directx 11 issue.
I have all the latest drivers for D11 and my GTX 550Ti. Also for some reason i can't roll back my drivers on my GTX...
Thing is on 3.5 it defaults to backend on 3D9 and has always worked that way. However if i switch to 3D11 the program will immediately crash and never let me go to "Graphics Config" unless i completely reinstall the software.
This is the same error I'm getting from 4.0.1, but i can't get to an option to backend because it crashes right off the bat.
Also it obviously gives the same error if i try to open any .iso's. Any information would help.
Edit: Also 64-bit, for what that's worth (just read the rules.)

I think that you have to set your nvidia card to performance mode in the control panel. Sadly since I do not have an Nvidia card, I cannot give any more detail than this:
From pauldacheez:
The GPU issue is a known one; leave the Intel GPU selected in Dolphin and put Dolphin on a high performance profile in the Nvidia driver settings to make it use your Nvidia GPU. (Note that I've told people to do this dozens of times and yet I've still never even fucking looked at the AMD/Nvidia driver settings. Adapt this advice as necessary.)

The problem with this is that i can't get to the graphics settings at all in 4.0.1. It crashes as soon as i click to it. It would do that in 3.5, too, if i set to 3d11.
I had tried changing all kinds of relative settings in my NVIDIA Control Panel to no avail.
It'd be nice if i could just change the setting to 3d9 in dolphin 4, because i know that's the main problem, but i can't.

Also check that your drivers, windows update, and visual c++ are updated.

Can you post a screenshot of the "crash" screen? Also do you have the latest DirectX installed?
