Was just wondering if anyone in here with an Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 video card and is having problems with 'Clothing Corruption'....where when you change clothes the inviroment wraps around you and you see SL crap on your body instead of your clothing...Please post here if you are having these problems, What video card you are running and what you did to fix....Thank you

Ok what are your other specs? (CPU, RAM, etc.)

Do you have the latest drivers? (GeForce & motherboard)

And what are your settings within SL? (Shadows, Shiny Objects, etc.)

And finally, is your card overclocked?

eeh known problem , usually somehow your cache got corrupted

you need to delete your cache , try diffrent shapes, without any clothes, relog, log back on, put on one you havnt had on in awhile, wait for it to rez, put on one more, relog, log back on repeat till you dont see it.

-.- Basicly youre trying to force a baked texture update on your avatar, by first
1.clean your cache
2.log in, change into a "blank" avatar , theres some in Library - Clothing - * shape & outfit
3.wait abit for it to rez
4.log out
5.log in, still wait for it to rez, then try diffrent clothings one at a time, it should appear normal

good luck, its been awhile since i had that one, but i think just about everyone run into this sometime.
