Good luck there. Linden Lab does not monitor these forums on a regular basis so the likelihood of anyone with a real ability to solve your problem is nil to bs. All we can do here is offer suggestions (mostly from our personal experiences with problems incountered in the past with the viewers, hardware, and the SL software).

Without much to go on as far as computer specs the first thing that I thought of in your case is heat. Your video card (or CPU) could be overheating.......the additional load placed on it by opening the world map, rezzing something, searching your inventory, etc could be putting your temps above whatever threshold it might have before it shuts down. If you are using a desktop cleaning the inside of your computer case is a good idea (and easy). You do that by taking the side off your computer case, get a can of compressed air and thoroughly blowing out all the dust that is accululated inside (doing that outside might be something you want to do.......you'll be surprised by the amount of dust in there). When you blow the dust out make sure you do not turn your can upside down......that makes the compressed air condense and you'll be blowing moisture out the nozzle (not a good thing). Also blowing through all the fan blades making sure they turn freely (turning the fans backward does not harm them). Makes sure you blow through your power supply.......both openings (the one on the back of the case and the one on the inside (usually at the bottom of the PS itself). If you are using a laptop I would not recommend you attempt to clean your computer yourself....take it to shop instead.
