Intel Graphics card unable to compile shaders
While trying to load Mario Kart Double Dash on a copy of the Dolphin Emulator running on an ASUS laptop with an Intel Graphics card running Windows 10, I got the following error message:
Failed to compile vertex shader:
C:\Users\[my username]\Documents\Dolphin\Emulator\Dump\bad_vs_0000.txt
Debug info (Intel, Intel(R) HD Graphics 520, 4.4.0 - Build 21.20.16.4550):
ERROR: 1:8: 'std140' : syntax error syntax error
After clicking OK, I heard sound, but couldn't see anything in the emulation window and got errors until I closed Dolphin.
Best Answer
Use Direct3D instead of OpenGL.
- From the main menu, open the Graphics menu.
- There, under Basic, change the backend to "Direct3D 11".
- Click "Close" and start the game.

Answer 2
Delete [os_drive]\Users\[username]\Documents\Dolphin Emulator. If you want to keep anything there, put it somewhere else as backup.
Surprisingly worked for me.
