/END Rant.
Just started using seccond life after seeing a friend play it. so afterdeciding I liked it got my own 4 month subscription. (on day 2 of 7 day trile now)
System
OS: Windowz XP Pro MSDN (dev edition)
OS2: Gentoo linux
Mem: 256meg
CPU: amd 1.6ghz
GPU: msi geforce 5600 pro 128meg
MB: EG L7VTA
Problem 1.
manged to get it install and walk about a bit, met up with friends and started to explore. It would seem i had filled what littel ram i had (256meg) and windows started using a page file. now the problem is, when ever SL startes to use a page file my system BSOD's and reboots. I could live with it happing after a few hours but ever since that first time, it now BSOD's just after i connect to the server.
I have closed all open/running programs not needed (including anti-whatever) and it stills dies in the same place. the only way round it i can see is to get more ram, sadly im straped for cash this month and what i could have spent on ram went on SL (being a student sucks sometimes)
Not wanting to cancel to get more ram, any idea's any one ?
Probelm 2
Ok, so my next step was to try and get SL working in linux (I use Linux normaly just have XP for games and silly windows uni work.)
I have the latest version of Cedega (wineX 4.0) [Yes its payed for
] and cant get the thing to install it complains about a version allready running or window named SL. any one got any work arounds for that ?Ok, copyed my windows install over and just ran it in Cedega and hoped. sadly no luck all it does is resize my screen , go black then crash, leaving me back to me desktop, but smaller and i cant see any thing but the mouse. does any one know if there are any modfications i need to make to me install of Cedega to get SL to work nicely ?
Thanks for all that read this, and thanks again if you post a reply
