Dolphin emulator help - ddrmaxman - 01-02-2011

So, I have a laptop that supports SSE2, but it very slow. My main computer is much faster, but does not support SSE2, which Dolphin requires to run.

Is there a version of Dolphin that does not require SSE2? If so, where can I find it?

If there is a version of it that doesn't need SSE2 than it would probably be one of those ancient builds that had trouble running anything above 10 FPS on top of the line computers. You'd probably be better off running games on your laptop.

Dolphin even runs sometimes laggy on my good PC...
It depends how Dolphin has been configured for running the Isos...

I don't know about it, I have much revisions on Dolphin here, one for Brawl, other for Melee...

He's saying that he's missing a hardware requirement. It really doesn't have much to do with how good his PC is.

Unless its a ridiculously power old processor in which case he might be able to emulate SSE2 instructions, but that isn't generally the type of thing that works very well.
