Test with the latest revision of Dolphin.
Provide a save (not a save state) to reach the problem area quickly.

You probably have a bad dump. Have you checked the md5 against the one at redump.org?

Can you give more concise computer specs? Are you using onboard graphics? What kind of error are you getting?

my graphics card on this laptop has 2G NVIDIA GDDR5 GeForce GT 640. I have 8G of RAM, Intel i7 QuadCore 2.10 GHz with hyperthreading, 64 bit windows 7 home premium. What else is there that you would need? and the error is that the game freezes at the same point in a certain cut scene and it forces the program to exit. i did find save files after every cutscene online, so if this error persists, i am able to just plug in a different memory card and go from there. but that gets tedious...

You might want to try redumping the game; as I said, I'm not having any problems continuing through it, minus some graphical errors in DX9.

Your processor and graphics aren't that different from my laptop, so, it must be either your disc dump, or drivers. Try updating your graphics drivers if redumping the game doesn't help.

Yes, I am quite sure you are using a bad dump. Starfox Adventures uses a GC feature called Audio Streaming. Recently, Dolphin emulates Audio Streaming more accurately and one of the effects of that is games will crash if a bad iso dump is used. The same thing will happen if you use your ISO on your Wii.

A correctly dumped Starfox Adventures disc works fine here too.
