I try to click yes to keep going then I get an error(You do not have the proper hardware requirements for Secound Life. Secound life requires an OpenGL graphics card that has multitexture support.?????

Here is my System setup incase somthing else is wrong

Update your drivers. Make sure your hardware acceleration is turned on in your control panel (or DxDiag, either way will work).
