Let me start off first by saying that I do *not* think the latest patch is causing this because I logged in without problems a few times after and ran just fine. The last few days, however I crash constantly. If I hold very still I can sometimes stay logged in for up to 10 minutes at a time!  So far these are the things that almost certainly guarantee a crash: appearance mode, edit mode, inventory search, adjusting camera angle with mouse. These are the things I seem to be able to do without a problem: chat, IM, teleport, fly, open and use inventory (just not search it or KABOOM!). The only thing I've installed (other than the patch) is a new font, which I doubt would cause my issue, but I uninstalled it just in case and it did not solve my problem.  This is causing me serious headaches as I need most of those tools for work that I both need and want to do.  Any ideas? I'm at a loss....

I know that sounds silly, but it worked for me before

Well I hadn't actually, so I did and crashed when I went into appearance after relog. That was a good idea though, I hadn't thought to try it.

My husband and I have both been crashing constantly. However my husband's computer crashes much more than mine and I think it is due to his graphic card not being as good as mine (although mine is nothing to write home about either).
We have tried everything to stop this from happening but to no avail. Also, I am losing my patience with the very loooooooooooooooooooooooong log off time.

My sim is crashing a LOT since the update (16 crashes and counting, compared to zero before the update)

I have a nVidia 7900 GT and I crash every time I enter into appearance edit mode.
Edit: Sorry for posting in a dead thread. I will create a seperate one for my problem.
