Switch to a different sound backend and see if the problem is fixed (DSound or OpenAL)

Hello, do you know if a new solution has been found yet for this issue please ?

same problem with Asus Zenbook UX302LG-4027H (W8.1 64Bits / 10Gb RAM / I7 / GT730M)
(with OpenGL & DX9 sounds not working properly)

Thank you !


RE: dolphin failed to enumerate outputs - Anti-Ultimate - 05-01-2014

select "Intel Graphics" as device in Dolphin and assign Dolphin.exe to high-performance in the nvidia control panel.

Also, don't bump old thread next time.

Better bumping an old thread than having 100 threads about the same thing...


RE: dolphin failed to enumerate outputs - clads92 - 05-02-2014

Thank you for your replie, nevertheless i've always got "bad" performances with dolphin (around 25FPS with Super Smash Bros. melee, 40FPS in Eternal Darkness in Standard Setting but 1080p)

Maybe my GPU isn't enough powerfull ?

My Computer :
Asus Zenbook UX302LG-C4027H Bleu Nuit
Screen → 13.3" 16:9 IPS FHD (1920 x 1080) + 10-point multi-touch
Core → i7-4500U (HD 4000)
Ram → 10 Go RAM DDR3
GPU → Nvidia GT730m
Main Disk → 128go SSD (mSATA Half size)
Second Disk → Samsung 840Evo 1To (SSD)


Sorry for bump old thread

You have a low-power CPU, which is where you're getting your bottleneck from. Put Windows into high performance mode through Power Management, and then look around the forums for the unofficial laptop performance guide, as it will show you how to use throttlestop (a program) to keep your CPU in turbo mode when playing Dolphin.


RE: dolphin failed to enumerate outputs - 410172 - 05-03-2014

Does Windows not automatically keep your CPU in turbo mode when using heavy programs like Dolphin? Always thought so.


RE: dolphin failed to enumerate outputs - KHg8m3r - 05-04-2014

Not always, it can sometimes see Dolphin as a program that uses low power since it only uses two cores

Windows 8.1 x64
Intel i7-4700MQ quad-core 2.4GHz
nVIDIA GT 755M with 2GB GDRR5
8GB RAM

I'm trying to play any game, and always get the failed to enumerate outputs error. I have the latests drivers and in nVIDIA control panel I've selected to use the dedicated GPU with Dolphin 4.0.2 x64.

I don't know what is going on Sad

I think I figured out a fix to this. I went to Nvidia control panel, manage 3d settings, program settings (tab). found dolphin and changed from global settings to High performance nvidia processor.
