Dolphin Crashing in Windows 10 - DAHypersonix1617 - 08-02-2015

I am using a Windows 8.1 that I recently upgraded to Windows 10. While using Windows 8.1, I had no problems with Dolphin, but when i upgraded to Windows 10 I started having problems. Now, whenever I try and start a game Dolphin it will run for about 1-3 minutes before crashing. I tried updating Visual C++ and Direct X Runtime, opening in compatibility mode, changing settings, and moving the files to a different directory and using a different version of (Dolphin 4.0-7141). I should also note that I am using the official Smash Bros Controller Adapter and have updated the drivers. And for whatever reason only Sonic Adventure DX, 2 and Cars work. Before the Windows 10 update NONE of these problems existed.

Help is very greatly appreciated

Does it work better with the other video backend?

My computer was originally a Windows 7. Just upgraded it to Windows 10 yesterday and it's doing the same thing.
Before the update I had been playing Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life for roughly 5 hours straight.
After the update, I started to play it and it crashed within 15 minutes. Tried changing the compatibility to Windows 7 and still no luck.
Undecided

You shouldn't use 3.0. Use a newer version

Well, this is pretty weird. I switched to OpenGL and it worked. I thought it didn't have as good as a performance as Direct3D, so I switched back, and for whatever reason it stopped crashing and worked.

EDIT: Nevermind. It wend back to how it was after I posted this

I just placed 3.0 in the version box because I can't seem to find my version information while using Windows 10.

...well, you can find that information by looking at the top of the dolphin window

i don't think windows 10 changed that
