SL was working fine until this latest required update. Now it doesn't want to start at all. I can't even make it to the login screen. Please help. I've tried to reinstall the application, but nothing seems to help this.

Yeah, that was exactly what was happening. I'm trying to pinpoint the source of the problem but I'm guessing some corrupted files in the update, seeing as how SL was fine before it. I did fix something with my display drivers and can now get the login screen at least.

Mist: your crash log indicates you're on a Mobility Radeon 9800 graphics card with drivers from 2004. You'll need to update them.

I went and update ALL my known drivers associated to using SL and I am still getting the error message.
