Dolphin 3.5-1575
Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which

Dolphin 3.5 works 100% when you disable ZTP and custom projection.
What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)
Lenovo T520
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2640M CPU @ 2.80GHz

Is there any other relevant information?
Default settings or adjusted settings cause the issue.
If you do set a custom projection, you can get some of the menus back. But never all of them.

Using Dolphin 4.0.2, try enabling Progressive Scan mode under the advanced graphics options.
Also, double check that you have a complete disc dump. The MD5 of the disc image should be:

Progressive Scan mode does nothing. As soon as the option to enable progressive scan apears on the screen it all goes black.
$ md5sum.exe -b ./edark.gcm

ISO looks good, I made it from my disk so it should be.
I just tried it from my Windows pc.
Specs are
Core i7-3820 @3.6Ghz
32GB Ram
Win7 Pro 64bit
Nvidia 680GTX
Does the same thing. Its a newer Dolphin version tho
4.0.984
It is restricted to OpenGL. The DirectX renderer seems to be unaffected.

Same is happening here, ubuntu 64bit. Haven't found a way to get this working, other than using an older version of the emulator.
