Dolphin Crash before any GUI - sploopidy - 06-02-2010
I just downloaded Dolphin of Windows XP 32-bit...when I load the executable, it crashes before any GUI even shows up...any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Your processor probably doesn't support SSE2, which is a type of processor instruction set, and is a hardware feature. Forget using the emulator if you have an AMD Athlon XP or another similarly crappy processor until you can afford a new system with more recent/modern hardware.
In any case, post your system specifications, CPU and GPU are most important.

Ahh, yes...AMD Anthlon XP...guess it's not too hard to figure out. I'll hopefully be able to get a job this summer (don't know if I legally can at my age) to get the money for a new processor. Thanks for the response.
