Cannot start games - baseball2k27 - 02-28-2010

Games require me to press start, and I'm sure enter is mapped to start. So when I do press enter nothing happens andeventually the game goes to a black screen and crashes. Any help?

How can we possibly help you with the information (or lack of information) that you've givin' us?

1) What game?
2) What Dolphin revision?
3) What kind of PC are you attempting to run the emulator on?
4) What are your Dolphin configurations including your pad plugins button mapping?

Please read the forum before asking. It's always the same questions. Do you knows that we are over 5100+ revisions???? I'm bored with messages that only fill up the forum... Can we talk about Essential Support???? Vista 32 or 64? If you haven't change anything from installation, you haven't read the topic how to start. You must configure the plugins!

Specifications?

If your PC has Intel integrated graphics or is an old card that lacks OpenGL 2.1 extensions, you will need to use the DX9 plugin instead of the OpenGL plugin.

If you are unable to use the DX9 plugin, you probably need to update DirectX to the latest bi-monthly release (February 2010), and yes you will need to do this regardless of whether you have Windows Vista/7 and DX10 or DX11.

Also download and install the Visual C++ Redistributable 2008 package for your processors and operating systems architecture. If you have Vista x86 you'll want to download and install the Visual C++ Redistributable 2008 (x86) package, you may want both the x86 and x64 versions of the Visual C++ Redistributable package if you have a 64-bit (x64) operating system.

Fixed by downloading a newer version, 4771. Thanks
