The spontaneous crashes back to desktop I keep getting are just plain maddening now. For weeks now, since the release of 1.10.xx (whatever) I have been getting these crashes, that happen when I am doing any of a number of things or even just doing nothing at all, with no apparent pattern of cause and effect whatsoever. Some days I crash 4x in 4 hours or, like last night, 7+ times in a 20 minute span. I have brand new drivers, cleared cache, even bought a new video card. My computer should well be able to handle SL, and my connection is no slouch either. What does it take to make Sl stable so I can just immerse myself in the world rather than cursing my way thru yet another crash log, or a bug report I can't send cause I got crashed back to desktop 2x while trying to file it? This has been ongoing and had **partly** resolved for a couple of weeks, but is back with a vengeance and getting progressively worse. Help!
This really suxx the fun out of things, you know?

Moved to Technical Issues. Sure does sound like it suxx.  Does the Beta Test Grid 1.12 work any better for you? http://secondlife.com/community/preview.phpDo you notice any patterns or does it seem pretty much random? I'd also recommend contacting Support.

Know what's crazier? Me, and a few other hundred people have been having exactly the same problem for weeks... and the first post to get a reply from a Linden... isn't even posted in the tech forums! crazy support just keep telling me to reinstall my video card drivers, which I've done about 7 or 8 times now and I still can't stay logged in without crashing after a few minutes. I hope 1.12 works! edit -- I just tried 1.12 and it crashed again

still no Joy- still crashing to desktop
08-24-2006 08:25
Well, 1.12: crashy as the same old kamikaze nonsense I have been enduring for a couple of months now. Just like before- pardon the broken record here- I can be doing anything, I can be doing nothing, I can be chatting, building, using camera, land editing, flying sitting teleporting-- literally anything including filing out a damn bug report about it-- and POW-- back to my desktop.
I was told by a linden its my network settings. I have 15mbps cable here and although I thought it was odd, I set that slower. Guess what? No change. Still crashing. I have updated and reinstallled drivers, uninstalled, reinstalled, cleared cache, Hell- I even maxxed a credit card on a new graphics card that was no faster than my old one, just a different brand cause LL couldn't be bothered to support my other 3 month old one.
This is making doing anything in world a real pain in the butt. I am so tired of starting conversations with "don't take it personally if I vanish. I keep crashing and will brb if I poof out". I am tired of getting maybe 30 min work done in 2 hours because I had to relog and let everything rez again so many times.
If I sound a bit upset, well, yes, I sure am, despite being an incredibly patient and understanding person. I have been fighting this for months now and even with all the weekly updates SL is still broken. I am trying to run my modest business here and this instability is making the service close to unusable and no joy to experience.
I need help and I need it yesterday, please.
