Hello, kinda' stumped here. I try to bring up Second Life and it instantly crashes as soon as it finishes opening the SL window. I have reinstalled twice, both with my old version of SL which works and then letting it update itself, and with the new 1.15.02 or whatever it is thats now running. Each time it crashes before it loads the actual game fully, just having time to send off a crash report to Linden Labs.

Fresh reformat done a few days ago, never had a problem prior to this, and oddly enough I was able to load the latest version before now as well.

Same here....insta-crash. Filing a support request, but keeping an eye out for solutions here. I tried disabling the bells/whistles to no avail. Grrrr....

I got a seemingly canned response from Support today mentioning there was a heavy load yesterday and am I still having the same problem. Yes, I am...my client is crashing! And after trying different nVidia driver versions (including the latest one) and repeated reinstalls the client is still crashing at during the login process.

Although this sucks, I'm actually happy to see that it's happening to a group of people and not just me. I only hope it's not a small enough group that there isn't someone working on this problem.

What concerns me is the glacial pace at which I'm interacting with Support. One q&a PER DAY apparently, and the first question was "we got your request...is it working yet?" Ugh!

I am having this same issue- Crashing before I can even get logged in... This aggravates me to no end! I have searched the knowledge base and this issue with the new client does not seem to be there..... help..... anyone

I crash this way also, before SL is even loaded.
