Can't create opengl renderer?

Hi guys

I have downloaded fire emblem path of radiance iso and dolphin emulator and i tried running it but i get an error saying 'can't create opengl renderer. You may be missing some extensions' or something like that. the log file says:
Unhandled Exception
Code: 0xC0000005
Call stack info:
0x02E557A5 : ?
0x02EEDA58 : ?
ntdll!0x7C93118A : LdrInitializeThunk
ntdll!0x7C953ADA : RtlDestroyEnvironment

0x02EED581 : ?
0x02EED76E : ?
0x02EED797 : ?
0x02E18DB1 : ?

My computer's specs are:
MS Windows XP
Service pack 3
2.80Ghz
2GB RAM

and I have a Matrox Millenium P650 (graphics card? im not sure)
I have the latest (I think) driver from Matrox installed.

Please help!

Dolphin is pretty much the only GC (as well as Wii and Triforce) emulator being actively developed lately. Your only bet is to try the Direct3D9 graphics plugin...
If you can't find it in Config->Plugins, try installing the latest DirectX 9.0c runtimes: Download details: DirectX End-User Runtime

EDIT: well, didn't notice the first sentence in the first post...

So Dolphin requires specific graphic cards or it would throw up this error?

it doesn't, the P650 and P750 are DirectX8/8.1 hardware and only support ARB shaders up to OpenGL 1.4.
