Error "Cannot get 1GB Contigious Memory" - born2rade - 08-21-2009
Hi everyone. I need some major help here.
I'm very new to Dolphin. I downloaded one of the newest versions
SVN r4021. My main problem is that i get an error saying "cannot get 1GB of Contigious memory" I have tried everything and i cannot seem to get 1GB of memory.
Can anyone help me?
My CPU specs are quite low.
Pentium 4, 2.4 ghz
1.2 GB RDR Ram
Geforce 7600 GS

u only have 1.2 gb of memory, thats not enough unless u close every running process thats not essential to keeping your computer running. this includes programs, antivirus software, taskbar items, and anything else u can think of. i recommend just adding some memory sticks.

just go get like 100GB extra space for a backup incase your computer crashes and is unable to recover anythinng.

playing dolphin on something like that is just brutal... I'd rather gouge my eyes out with razor blades.
I sometimes want to do it even on my computer... hyrule field is like... lets just say it's bad...

physical RAM is different from Virtual memory. Dolphin needs 1 GB of Memory, whether it's physical or virtual doesn't matter to it. So I would suggest increasing your virtual memory size.
