Ya, there is a thread that is about a day old on this exact same topic...
But that aside, do you have the most up-to-date drivers for your video card? And are you running Norton or some other power-hungry antivirus?

I did a search for "failed" with 0 results also for "failed to grab" with 0 results not sure why I would get 0 results for the first part of the error although I wasn't signed up at the time.

I think he might be suspicious of you having dual accounts, but that's just my guess. So did you update your video card drivers?

This is my only forum account I just downloaded dolphin for the first time tonight. I set the path to my wads folder and then had to delete the stuff in the maps folder now it runs but all I am getting is a black scren I hear the music and sounds tho.
EDIT:
switched to opengl and it seems to work now

Good enough then, sry I couldn't help.
RE: Failed to grab 1 GB of contiguous memory! - qazwsx - 09-02-2009
the buttons on my keyboard are not working even tho in config they are set?
RE: Failed to grab 1 GB of contiguous memory! - pascal11110 - 09-02-2009
Well it seems you got that rom from joesalad21, which is a rapidshare account. Thus it was illegally downloaded, and you'll get no more help from me.
*Sniff Sniff* I don't know about you but I'm catching a faint whiff of ban here...
