When I start second life I use it for a bout 10 mins then all of a sudden textures explodes in irregular polygons normally around characters as well as large shards of multi color shapes around the world anywhere I go. It use to take a while but now it happens right off.

my comp specs are: PC:intel ep 45 ud3l motherboard, 2 gb mushkin 1066 ram, 8400 wolfdale cpu, raden 4850 gigabyte 512 ddr3

Don't use Catalyst 9.4 drivers (9.3 will work better eventually) and disable VBO in your graphics settings. You may also want to try CoolViewer which has OpenGL fixes the official viewer doesn't have that work way better not only for ATI cards. Link in my sig below.

Turn off VBO in the advanced graphics options.
