ok i have 1gb ram and a AMD dual core 4400+ with onboard video X1250 Express (upgrading today to X1300 PCI-E)
and i had 32 bit windows installed but i installed X64 and now i still cant get past the memory card saving thing on super smash bros melee
it just freezes after it saves and i tried GCos and it just gives me a barrage of error messages and yes i have the latest X64 dolphin
a guy got it to work on youtube so it has to be possible
thanks in advanced

just wondering..... why would you buy a x1300 when there are newer low end cards around the same price but offer more performance and picture quilaty like a HD2400 or HD3450??

because i bought the x1300 (pro i think) for
$25 dollars brand new and others are not the same price

there is no speed limiter in dolphin, there may be one in the next release.

Whilst not strictly on topic, with the recent build/s being x64 only, does that mean the final release when it is done, will be x64 only, or will there still be an x32 version?

off topic: well i got my X1300 no difference in temps still raises to 55C

On topic: i sure hope there will be a speed limiter and also the abilities to use Pixel shading vers. 3.0 and 4.0
that would be AWESOME PS 3.0 FTW
any good games on GC that you would recommend?
thanks

EDIT: i also found out that using AA in dolphin slows down the frame rate
also the cursor moves to fast on SSBM is there a input setting i can change?

I have windows XP, so how can I check whether or not I have a 64 bit operating system?

If you don't know, then you most likely do not have a 64-bit operating system.

well how can I know for sure? (not that your response wasn't extremely helpful or anything)

Just try a 64bit application and if you cant run it you will be sure you dont have it :P
If you are too lazy to search for a 64bit app then reboot and look on your boot screen! If there is no "x64 edition" stated then its not a 64bit version....

Alrighty then, it appears I have a 32bit OS. Can I upgrade to a 64bit OS version of XP by merely installing it, or would I have to change my hardware, e.g. get a new processor or something?

you need a 64 bit processor (Sempron, Athlon, Athlon X2, Intel Core 2 Duo etc.) and a 64 bit windows. i recommend a dual core processor like athlon x2 or intel core 2 duo... i think you can upgrade but im not sure...

If the specs are right in your profile then you cant upgrade without getting new hardware!
