I get as far as the screen that says a crash was detected and would I like to file a bug report, which I did, the first couple of times, and then nothing.. No screen at all. I tried reinstaling. What now?

Any suggestions at all would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Im afraid your posts are in vein unless you include system specs, tell us you've updated all your drivers, and so on.. :)

wouldn't be doing anything to your own system, it seems to be server issues so best advice is hold tight

Same prob man, exactly the same. I accidently posted my own topic about this though, before reading this topic. But ya, it's very annoying.

Don't worry about asking retarded questions, when i started SL I only knew were the on button was, now i can do tracerts and pings.

My 3.5 months of lag issues turned out to be my ISP bandwidth shaping me, check your ISP service and also check that you are running no other programmes while trying to log into SL.

These people are great with questions and between them there is nothing they don't know.
