    the reason i'm posting about this, is because i believe the issue to be with my computer, it happens on even old revisions, that never did that before i reformatted again...so i guess the question is, do i need to install something to fix this? if so what....

    Laptop or Desktop?
    Processor

    well...i figured specs didn't matter, i had it working perfectly before i formatted but oh well...

    laptop,
    Intel Core 2 Duo T6600 processor,
    windows 7 ultimate X64,
    RAM....i've installed so much i don't remember....
    and...i dunno what my video card is, but i don't think that should have anything to do with it....

    Driver issues could cause programs to error like that...
    It's important to know what you are using when trying to run emulators.

    part of it is that dolphin is STILL unstable software. Expect it to crash often.

    Try updating your graphic driver, and direct x.
    This is a common issue when using the Rev build, either the emulator configurations was messed up, especially the graphic plugins or the drivers were outdated.

    my drivers were updated last year sometime.....but i only get the problem when quitting, it doesn't do anything during gameplay.....just when stopping a ROM, or exiting it....that's why i believe i may be missing something...dunno what though....because i stopped using my geek squad disks, so i got a windows 7 x64 bit and reinstalled everything manually, that's whyi'm missing quite a few things still....i don't even have my sound driver installed (but sound works....)

    Dont worry about crashing( i think the unload runtime isnt well), just Quit proccess and start it again,its the fastest and easiest method at this point of time
