Dolphin Crashing - Fault Module Name:XAudio2_7.dll_unloaded - jleprince - 12-14-2013
Hey everyone, I'm new to these forums, so forgive me if some if this is formatted incorrectly.
I recently built a new PC, and it's been having issues with game stability. When trying to run Dolphin, it will run the .iso for 15 minutes or so, then crash unexpectedly, returning the following error message:

My graphics drivers are updated to the most recent release, and I'm running directx 11.
This issue not only affects dolphin, but Project64 and a few other games like Tomb Raider from Steam. Does anyone have any suggestions for a fix?

Download the Directx Web Updater, and run it to see if anything is missing. XAduio (the fault module) is a subset of Directx

Ran the web installer and tried to play Melee again. Same situation, it crashed after about ten minutes. The only way it seems to work is by me using DSound rather than XAudio2, but this isn't a permanent solution and I'd still like to know how to fix my Xaudio file

My guess is that something is wrong with the way Dolphin stable builds install themselves or something to that effect. KHg8MeR seems to have come up with a solution for Dolphin in this thread: https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-dolphin-has-stopped-working--33364?pid=304786#pid304786
Dunno why it's affecting other programs, but I suspect something isn't right with how XAudio2 is installed on your computer. Might want to google that to get further clues.
