Ever since the update all i've been doing every other minute is crash. I've at least crashed 15 times within the past 2 hours. I have been noticing others having problems too. But I dont run anything else but SL on my computer and it crashes constantly. I hope this problem will be resolved soon.

You ARE letting the client send in a crash report every time, right?
I do run other things on my system, but the only time I crash is when SL is runnin' :/ #! |

Yes i am letting it send the crash report every time (which seems to be every 5 min). Normally I run PS7 in the background but I havent tried since the new update.

Is there a new update for 1.71(2)? It keeps kickin' avs out of the sim and crashes so bad. Totally impossible to do anything in SL for almost FIVE days!!! Couldn't stay IW for more than even just a few mins. |

Dunno if this will help but I just went through this with some one and walked em through
their preference. Had then turn cache and texture cache all the way up and disable auto dedect hardware. She is able to tp, walk up stair ect... Hope this helps ![]() |

I have crashed several times, and the crash reporter doesn't load properly - an empty window pops up, does nothing and I have to force quit it to get rid of it. See attachment for what it looks like....
(using OS X 10.4) Also, I keep falling through solid objects that I'm standing on when I change position or edit things. I got out of bed and fell through my floor. That's never happened before. |

ok try this...

No promises, obviously, but I ended up being able to play for 4 solid hours without a crash last night after I changed some settings. I'm not sure which one of them did the trick, as I was in a hurry at the time, so I just did all of these:
graphics tab: performance options: none checked avatar rendering: normal terrain detail: full gamma: 1.00 advanced graphics: texture cache size: Large ** Vid Card Memory : 64mb (even tho my card is 12 ![]() fog distance: 2.9 drop draw distance: 0 bumpiness draw distance: 8 max particle count: 2816 outfit composite limit: 4 I think the video card memory one is a biggie... Anyway, hope this helps narrow it down a bit... #! |

I adjusted settings and tuned alot of it down quite a bit. In fact I've crashed about 10 times within the past 30 min. This is just unreal.

My graphics settings are turned down quite low already.
I'm more worried by the crash reporter not working than the general crashes, to be honest. The latter can be fixed, but without the former, how will the fixes be made? |

Got the latest catalyst driver for ATI card.
At least now it won't crash so far I've been staying in the sim for an hour. Url to download: https://support.ati.com/ics/support/default.asp?deptID=894&task=knowledge&folderID=27 |
