Need help on configuring my settings - handel - 12-02-2015

Hi guys,

I'm going on holiday soon and would like to relive a little bit of my youth by playing some GC games on my Macbook Air while I'm travelling. I have 2 questions, due to my lack of computer knowledge I'm hoping somebody might be able to help me out with these:

1. Which settings do I need to set my Dolphin emulator too, in order to get the most out of it?
2. Are my laptop's specs enough to even play some GC games? I got an immediate error when booting zelda tp so I'm guessing this either has to do with my settings or my laptop's specs..
The specs of my laptop are:

Macbook Air 13 inch
1,8 Ghz Intel Core I5
8GB 1600 Mhz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024MB

Thank you in advance!

Try upgrading to the latest dev build of Dolphin (4.0-8xxx something) and updating to OSX 10.10 or 10.11

And be prepared to lots of performance issues. Those underclocked low voltage CPUs aren't good, and if used together with their GPU, usually also thermal bottlenecked...
