This is becomming very troublesome.. And I haven't been able to find anything out there to help me. It happens with any viewer with any graphics settings.
The viewer freezes, and says (Not responding) .. and never comes back. Either that or it just flat out closes on me. And this will ONLY happen when something else is brought infront of the viewer. I usually have Steam, ventrillo, Yahoo messanger, and w/e else running. When any of those is brought up infront of the viewer, SL freezes. It doesn't always happen either. Sometimes its okay with things being up infront of it. Other times it isnt.
I'm not seeing too much of a pattern in why its crashing.
My best guess: When something new needs to load on my SL viewer, and the viewer is NOT my computers focus, it freezes. BUT IM NOT sure if this is actually true.
I am able to run SL and another full screen game (left4dead) at the same time, and the game has fine FPS and runs smooth, and SL doesnt crash. So it isnt that my pc is lacking in anything.
I'm running with:
AMD Phenom II X4 955
3.21 GHz
3.25 GB RAM
ATI Radeon HD 4800
and i'm using windows XP
._. Any help is much appreciated.
