Since this "Security Update" it's clear I can not be logged in longer then 1 minute before SL and my whole machine freezes. And if I dont log out before that I need to manually reboot my computer.

I was thinking it had to do with this new vieuwer version but since then I have tried: nicolaz, cool, onrez, betagrit/second life mono, Candidate Viewer and some more. All with the same result. While before the "Security Update" I know I could run those normaly.

In the one minute I am given everything works fine and looks normal. Just like it has done the past 1.5 year.

Sometimes if I logged out fast enough: a second try would result in error mesages about my graphics card driver. So I been reinstalling the latest and resent drivers. Those drivers would work fine before this update btw.

So here I am now, out of ideas.

Windows xp, service pack 2
intel(r) core(tm) duo cpu 6300 @ 1.86GHz
1GB RAM
Ati Radeon x1300/x1550 Serries

Any new ideas greatly appreciated. The idea that leads to a costless solution I will reward inworld with a nice gift of some kind. ^_^

Look in the technical forum for an answer to this, I have read somewhere that updating to the latest drivers with some graphics cards is not the best idea.

You could also repost this question there too, you may get more helpful answers.
