I've just done a video upgrade to the Asus AH2600PRO and wanted to give SL a try. I've installed SL but when I try and start it absolutely nothing happens. I can see it running for a while in processes but then it goes away - no errors or anything.
Running WinXP Pro SP3 on duo core machine with plenty of RAM and disc space. This card is based on the ATI 2600 Radeon (system lists it as Radeon HD 2600 PRO) - and running the ATI Technologies Inc. (Omega 3.8.442) driver.
any suggestions on what I can do to get it to load?

Try switching to the regular most recent ATI drivers. Not that Omega stuff.

I guess I'd start by opening the box and watching to make sure the fan isn't obstructed, since that's easy to do and takes no brainpower.
And like was said, try the stock ATI driver, since the Omega isn't working.
Make sure to uninstall the old drivers before installing new ones.
You might want to use a driver cleaner like , umm, DriverCleaner I think is the name of one.
And you should check your second life log files, one of which is called secondlife.log, and there should be some others, I think one is called crash.log . Read them all to see if they have anything that looks useful.
Log files are in C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\SecondLife\logs
