Using Dolphin

[grape_garden]

Hello! I'm trying to load up Super Smash Bros. Melee on the Dolphin emulator, with no success, I'm afraid. The ISO came from Emuparadise's torrent tracker, as one large .GCM file, not compressed with Winrar, or any of that stuff.

When I try to load up the game, I get a black or green screen, and I get an error message from my computer, tell me that Dolphin has encountered an error, and must shut down.

Is there any sort of process to playing Gamecube games on Dolphin? Do I require certain plugins?

Thanks a bundle.

I think no one had ever ran dolphin successfully ever at all but that is gust me, last time I checked on dolphin news was about 3 years ago so I don't know much.

Unless you have a fast dual-core running either XP64 or Vista64, then don't bother with Dolphin.

Since the Dolphin home page seems to be down ATM, here's another link:

Yeah, SSBM is my favorite game ever. I got it working on my pentium 4, at like 10 fps. Is there a better emulator than Dolphin?

SLOW-MO!
