    I have two things, one I can easily find and open my pad_input thing but my dolphin can't find it...or any of the others.

    Secondly is there anyway to get dolphin to work with games not on the compatibility list? or anyways to get the dolphin staff to work on a specific game?

    You might be able to get games not on the compatibility list to work, if you play around with settings, etc.
    I highly doubt you'll be able to get the staff to work on any specific game.

    If you are willing to take time and if you know a bit about how to play around with the settings, you can try some of the beta releases.

    Some games works on different version of Dolphin emulator.
    and Make sure your PC is up to date.

    Well I got a better version from my friend (was free so no scamming there), and all the inputs work but when i press play on the two games nothing will happen. I am downloading a game from the compatibility list right now to see if that is the reason. and If i gave you two games would you be able to help me find the right settings? don't really get that part, do you mean like config or something else?

    Which version did you use?
    Simpsons Hit and Run works okay on 4525, default settings.
    Not sure about NHL 2003 and 1080 Avalanche.

    and, can you list down your pc specs?

    Hmm, well the only thing I can think of is that your graphics card may not be strong enough, low quality/integrated ones aren't compatible with Dolphin.

    Try 4525.

    Updating your direct x and c++ can solve the pads problems.

    Your graphic card?

    I got the copy from the main site.
    Check for the link here.

    and update your graphic card driver.

    Your PC specs is a bit powerful than mine.
    So, I assume you can run it well.

    All right I'm trying 4525 and getting the update. I will tell you if that worked tomorrow.
    Thanks a ----->load<-----

    EDIT****
    Either I have the msot updated one or the computer I'm on right now (My dolphin comp has no interwebs) can only downlaod driver updates for it's own card....so this may take a bit longer than tomorrow for me to tell you guys.
