GFX FIFO errors and 0FPS drop - ~dreaM! - 08-01-2014

Hello there, good evening.

Lately, I've been trying to play POKéMON XD: Gale of Darkness in the, as for then, latest revision of Dolphin 4.0-2352 and I've been experiencing some problems that made tha game unplayble -mostly like because I couldn't even move-.

The first of both errors, are the GFX FIFO errors that appeared like nothing while I was playing. The first time it appeared was when I was in "Agate Village", more concretly in the cave just before fighting the old man's Pikachu. It appeared like nothing and when I pressed "OK" to quit the message, then it appeared once more. And then, over and over until I quit Dolphin through Task Manager. I need to say, this happened in both versions, the one that I'm using now -4.0-2353- and in the one I downloaded before -4.0-2319-. I restarted the game and I could go over there, but a little further more, it appeared again. Resterted, and after a few minutes, again... in both versions.

I will try to get a screenshot of the error, but as for now, I have none.

And the second problem is that, sometimes, while playing, the FPS drops to 0 -literally- and stands 0 like if I paused the game like nothing, in both versions too. The only one I remember exactly as for now, was in a battle in the Cypher Lab HQ against "Blusix".

In both cases, I don't know what could be as I tried two different versions and both appeared to fail, but always in random places, not a single place in common between to problems.

I have all the drivers updated as for today (07/31/2014) except the Audio drivers I will update in a while, and here is my config, so please tell me if I did something wrong.

Thank you very much. Have a nice day.

Turn off dualcore, enable idleskipping.

Switch over to HLE audio. Even though you have audio output turned off, it may help
