I just recently searched for a place to go and when I clicked to teleport there it started to load. Then once everything started to pop into place I crashed. Now everytime I try to log in I keep crashing! My computer is top notch and haven't been experiencing problems thus far until I went to this land which Idon't remember what it was called.

How can I get out of it?

You might start by turning your computer, modem, router, etc. completely off for a few minutes.

When you start SL back up, go to Preferences, Network, and click the Clear Cache button. Exit from SL and start again.

System specs?

Check this page: https://support.secondlife.com/ics/support/KBAnswer.asp?questionID=4231

What is the problem location?

You could try uninstalling SL, deleting the settings.xml file, then re-installing SL.

Do you have Windows automatic update turned on by any chance?

What operating system? Service pack or other update level?

Type of processor?

Amount of ram?

Amount of video ram?

What version of video driver and where did it come from?

Version of SL?

Type of internet service?

Wired or wireless?

Firewall sofware and or hardware?

Anti-virus software?

Anti-malware software?

The more information you provide the greater the chance someone will recognize a problem.

Is it just SL crashing or the whole computer locking up?

Did you really delete the settings.xml file or did you just say that?

I doubt the teleport much to do with your crashing problem. If I'm reading your discription correctly you crashed when things started rezzing for you. Your problem could very well be a graphics problem. Check nVidia for a more recent driver.

Also, system specs include more than the graphics card you have and the hard drive. Try telling what CPU you have, your operating system, are you on a desktop or laptop, are you networked with other computers, are you wireless..........things like that will really go far for someone giving you some ideas on how to fix your problem.

Also, if you will read some of the threads in this forum you will find others who might have had similar (or even the exact) issues and the resolution to it.

edit:
Suzanne beat me to it.

I just tried to teleport to Anime from the map and got a "no valid parcel" message.

I tried to teleport to Anime KOBE and got logged out of SL.

Maybe it's a problem with the sim.

If you just want to get back into SL before you find what is wrong with that place, press ctrl-P at the login screen, and under the General tab check "show start location in login screen". While you're there, pick "My Home" from the little menu, or type in a well known sim like Morris, then close that and log in the usual way.

Yeah, it was the area I was in.

I figured out I could log into my home instead of that location so I did that a poof, everything was back to normal. Thanks anyway.
