Hello everybody, Im a fairly constant Second Life user. However, for reasons of my own, im trying to get the game to work on this family computer... The general problem is that when I start the game up, it loads everything up, gets to downloading clothing, then crashes. Every time  My specs are- 734 MB of RAM Intel Premium 4 CPU 2.60GHz ATI RADEON 9100 IGP By the looks of it, the problem lies within the video card. Everything looks fine, except the fact that the Second Life Hardware Specs page says that any RADEON with IGP in it will NOT work. I was hoping if anyone here has come across or helped solve this problem, and could help me to return to my virtual life on this computer?  Thanks for your time, even if you cant help me out -Drake EDIT- Oh, and as well, I set all the preferences in Second Life, Sound and Video alike, to as low as they can go in fullscreen mode |

Hey, thanks for helping- Installed the driver and all, now I can get into second life! But theres another problem- http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/2778/secondlifewtfad8.pngAs you can see, everything is... green. Ive cleared my cache, waited half an hour, upped and downed my graphics settings, but nothing really seemed to work. When I logged on and off, first it when from black to bluish, and bluish to greenish o.o Any ideas anyone? Thanks for all your help with this matter... EDIT- Sorry, It didnt get the HUD... I can see all the buttons at the top and bottom of screen, including minimap and chat, but it didnt show up on the screenshot for some reason |

Your card might not be supported by SL anymore. Get a new(er) card that's supported, if you can.

From: Lex Neva Try adjusting the Fog Ratio to 4.0. Tried that, and after that also tried upping other options, but the Fog and everything else I tried didnt help at all... |

I am also experiencing this problem. I can connect without crashing however everything appears to be gray except for the sky.
895MB Ram
2.79 GHz Pentium 4 with HT
ATI Radion 9100 IGP
Its an on board graphics card.
Is there no way to lower the quality so I can actually see?
I set the quality settings and draw distances to their lowest and still cannot see anything.
Bummer!
If anyone knows a fix please reply to this thread.

Yeah I saw the fact that the vid card is unsupported, but if everything is one color there has to be something to adjust that....
