How do I use Dolphin emulator?

I have downloaded the latest version, got it to open, then downloaded Super Smash Bros. Melee (for GameCube). The problem is that every time I try to open it, it'll crash. The games extension file is .gcm. My computer runs at 2.3 GHz, so it should run fine, but does anyone know how to stop it crashing or if there is a patch file I can put on it?

    First off make sure you are getting the emulator from the official site: http://www.dolphin-emulator.com/

    (also on that site are forums, will get better help on the dolphin emulator from the official site forums).

    If you have the emulator from there, and it still isnt working, try downloading the rom from another source. emuparadise.me is a good place.

    Also you need to make sure you meet the graphic requirements aswell. which requires you to have shader model 2.0 with dx9.0c support. And set it up to run at native resolution in dx9.

    If none of this helps, go ask on the forums there, its more then likely going to be of better help.

    Also 2.3ghz barely cuts it, i have a 2.4ghz, and never hit full speed. quite a few games i can play at 80-90% speed, but there are also quite a few games i get as low as 60-70% speed on.
