I have been playing on a pc windows vista home premium serivce pack 1. Pc has windows rating for game of 4.1 proecessor intel core (tm) 2 quad cpu q6600 at 2.40 ghz ram 3 gb 32 os nvidia ge force 8600 gs. Updated graphics card driver today and it was a driver released last week. Since this have had 2 blue screens today whilst playing second life has anyone had this problem? Has sl not updated their support for this driver? Is there a solution to this or should I 'roll back' but before doing so I would like to know if its just my graphic card thats the issue here. After the blue screen and my pc crashed and I reboot the antivirus disappears from sys tray. Please someone advise
