What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

I usually play on Dolphin by starting the Wii Menu first. However, every time I try to load it, the emulation shows an error shortly after I press "A" that says "Dolphin will likely now crash or hang.Enjoy." Then I press "Ignore", and the emulation freezes.

That's the most typical scenario, although the timing of the error isn't always consistent. Just before I wrote this post, I waited some time before pressing "A", and the emulation froze on a black screen, whereas it usually freezes just while the Wii Menu is fading into view.

Also, this problem doesn't seem to be happening to any other game. I tried loading Pokémon Battle Revolution directly from the Dolphin catalog, and it ran fine.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Open Dolphin.
2. Go to Tools > Load Wii System Menu 4.3U.
3. In the relevant build versions, when the error shows up, click "Ignore".

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Yes, version 5.0-16039.

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

[Yes/No and version number here]

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

I don't remember exactly which version is the first broken version, but I do remember that I first saw it in one of the 5.0-1600X builds.

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

[Attach any fifologs if possible, write a description of fifologs and screenshots here to assist people unfamiliar with the game.]

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)
