I got 1.6, I keep trying to play and when I double click it does the loading SL and Detecting hardware thing, then ti blanks out and does nothing, I just sit at my desktop.
Then I click the icon again and its like "cg.dll not found! please reinstall" so I did and its still happening. What the heck? I use XP and my computer is above the requirements.

Okay update: Its not saying that anymore, now its just loading but then shutting out withotu saying anything

I did a websearch on cg.dll and this site implies cg.dll is a NVidia graphics card file. So try installing the latest drivers from your card manufacturers website. If that doesnt help and you do have a NVidia based graphics card install the drivers from NVidia themselves. Finally if that doesnt help try installing the latest DirectX

I am not using windows and so I can't offer any additional advice.
Good Luck

Morokitty, can you post your system specs? Make and model of CPU/motherboard/RAM/video card?

Windows XP
I also might note it also wouldnt load up all the way in the SecondLife Preview version either. I figured back then it was just some bug that was gonna be fixed or something.
