Wii games crash when using direct3d 11 in fullscreen - ele38 - 10-20-2016

Whenever I launch a game while using direct3d 11 on fullscreen, I get a black screen followed by the program not responding, although I can launch the game in windowed and then enter fullscreen and gamecube games work fine too. I've already tried updating the drivers, updating dolphin, using portable mode and ishiiruka without getting it to work. Any help is appreciated.

This is a known bug. You can avoid it by enabling Render to Main Window (or like you already said, disabling fullscreen when booting or using a different backend.)

Thanks! That worked!

render to main window makes it a borderless fullscreen even though you have it set to use exclusive. The only real fix is to disable start in fullscreen and then pressing alt+enter to enter fullscreen manually.
