help...me...with.........stuff....yeah....stuff.

I need some help with my SL.

First- every time I go shopping n SL it always load slowly. sometime it take 5min just for 1 image.

Second-It's been running real slowly. I lag every time I walk. so I'm using a new laptop n when I first played on it everything ran nicely small lag...don't have the right driver but it ran fine.

third-SL keeps on crashing...is it my settings which I have messed with a lot.

Can you tell us what machine you're running SL on? Brand and model, or if it's a 'custom', the specs?

For the first two, is the lag smooth, or jittery? By that, I mean does the video look laggy, or is it just that everything takes a long time to respond? Judging by the response to this, it could be either your computer can't easily handle SL, or that your internet connection is slowed by something (B it just a slow connection, odd router setup, and so on).

As for the last one, is there any commonality between crashes? If you're always doing the same thing, it could be a bug in the viewer, and a newer version may fix it (Perhaps the currently available Release Candidate client would, even).

If you're doing various things, then it could be SL is just having a fit. It's notorious (Though getting better) for sudden crashes, and not liking random drivers/cards and so on. Your specs would help greatly in knowing the problem.
