Dolphin system reqs

Hi!
I'm a newbie, and I'm from hungary.
So i want to know the minimum reqs of the dolphin.
Because I try to run the emu, but it doesn't work.
I have the Bust a Move 3000 gcm, and if i start the emu it freezes and hang on.
If i move out the gcm from the gcm's directory, it don't freezes.
I read a lot of forum, and i have a bad feeling.
Maybe my Win'98 isn't good, for this emu?
I readed this problem with Win Me op.syst too.
If you want i can send the error message, to discover the problem, but it is in hungarian language. but with a lots of codes like:
Registers:
EAX=00000000 CS=018f EIP=00426050 EFLGS=00010246
EBX=00000000 SS=0197 ESP=0329b89c EBP=0329bb70
ECX=ef9f97f0 DS=0197 ESI=0329bcf8 FS=492f
EDX=bffc9490 ES=0197 EDI=0329bc0f GS=0000

and blablabla...
So please help me!
Adios!

Oh and i forgot this: I make this thread to get the correct answer to the min. system specs, to run the Dolphin, because i have read the win'98 and Me problems in this forum too, but without correct answers (from the Dolphin crew)...

Taken straight from the help file of Dolphin....

Minimum System Requirements

CPU: The fastest you can get your dirty hands on :)
Graphics card: DX9 level, preferably Radeon 9500+ but Geforce FX should work too.
Sound card: Any Windows-compatible soundcard should do.
Windows version: 2000/XP or higher recommended, should work on 98/Me too.
DirectX version: DirectX9b or higher.
Memory: At least 256MB is recommended for now.

Even with all these components the only game you should expect to be playable is Bust a move 3000.

yes, i know, but i'm affraid to change my cpu, because, my mobo is too old, and the support team of Epox(manufacturer of my mobo) tell me, its maybe possible to change the cpu to a newer AMD XP, but its no prove to work...
So i think its too risky...
But i want to try, if i find a service where i can test my pc i will buy a new cpu...
So thats all.
Bye!

Insert clever rhetoric here.
I'd say the ABSOLOUTE min reqs (from my reading of the forums) are:

PIII 1ghz
Geforce 4 mx400
128mb ram
Windows XP

you have to give dolphin some more time. in its pre stage right now it just a little to early to determine sys req

It's Windows 98.
No it's something wrong with system or drivers.
I have Win98 and it works ok except little problem - File/Open and GCM shrinker Browse menu doesn't work but it's probably dll related problem.
Bust-a-Move 3K runs at 35-160 fps with WildcatVP 990.
