I got a old processor a pentium 2.4 please somebody tell me
How slow the games would be

Slow. No play. Unless you have a core with 4 x the highest and best processors available, you won't get a decent speed.

Of course it will do the trick - don't be silly. But still, such things are far too exepensive and probably not available today.
So bottom line is: you can't play gc games on the computer.

What if you use a frame skip?
It's not the fact that you'd be skipping the frames that would speed it up. I mean I can run this thing at 800x600 and then turn around and run it at 1600x1200 and I ge the exact same speed. So clearly it isn't the video card slowing it down.
The thing is you can notice speed increases if you simply don't try to emulate everything. You'd have to do some sort of fancy frame skipping, which would essentailly still process everything, but not correctly and then skip the messed up data so it's never drawn.
I'm a little unclear, but for example if you use older versions you may notice they do some things faster but it draws it messed up. Well essentially you'd want to do something like that, but jsut skip over the frames that were emualted that way.

Let me get this clear. The GameCube has an IBM PowerPC Gekko 128-bit Processor. 128-BIT. The current PC's have 64-bit Processors. Also, the GameCube can run at about 15-gigaflops, while the PC only runs at a rough 5-10 gigaflops. Also, The Dolphin Emulator has very weak code at the moment. It needs to be optimized. The Dynarec needs improvements. And that's about all.

Haha, those 15 gflops is pure marketing speak, in theory a modern athlon stomps all over the Gamecube. Unfortunately the gamecube is just enough different from a PC (big-endian, nastily complex PowerPC, evil display list formats) to be a real bitch to emulate efficiently. It's the architecture differences that makes it slow, not that Gamecube has some kind of magic "128-bit" performance.

I test a game.
The game is luigis mansion an it runs slow but a error comes out and i dont know what is if somebody can help me. the screenshot of the error is here

The Gekko is 32-bits
