But why, if i can run modern warfare my computer should be able to run gamecube games, is it the processor?

2.2ghz dual core wouldn't give u full speed when using dolphin
wel prolly in some 2D-games

well thanks for the feedback but the requirements say a processor above 2 Ghz and i had Wind Waker running at 100% inside houses so I think there must be a way for me to atleast surpass 60% I will keep trying any pointers to atleast increase speed even a little bit is appreciated.

I matched the settings and now wind waker runs at an average of 80% in out door areas, but well over 180% inside houses due to the audio throttle being disabled, so i guess my computer can handle it in a way, maybe in the future the emulator will be more customizable and it will work like a real gamecube or ill have a better computer, guess ill have to dig out the old wii, thanks.
