Ok i don't know what else to do. I have tried everything I can think of short of adding this log file. Maybe someone can have a look at it and tell me what might be wrong?

More Input, Nr. 5.
It looks like you crash out immediately after you log in. Is that right?
When did the first crash happen? It seems there is some object around you or attached to you that makes you crash and throws this Kakadu Error thing. Any idea what that would be?
Do you have any idea where you are when you log in, meaning, do you know where you last logged out/crashed out of the game? (Sim name, position) so one could try a search for the object in question that has the key given in the log.

I can run SL fine once after a fresh reboot. I try logging on a second time and my system crashes after about 5-10 minutes if that long. As far as sims it doesn't seem to matter where I am really my system will reboot itself even though I turned that feature of XP off.
I have also gotten a blue screen once in awhile. Its either something abut IRQL or just a line of hex code. More often though its just a system crash/reboot.

Do you have any other kinds of memory/graphic intense software, such as some other fairly new 3D game (Half Life 2 or the like)? If yes, could you try to load that one first after the reboot, just to stress the machine a bit, using up some memory and gfx ressources, and then quit that again, and then start SL? Does SL run fine, just as it does after the reboot, or does it crash there, then, too?
Just a test to see if it depends on SL beeing loaded before or a general issue with the system when there has been some load on it before you start SL.
If the system crashes on SL after you did reboot, start the other game, quit it, start SL, my best guess would be some driver (the IRQL thing kinda hints there, or _can_ hint there) issues .. Personally, I would try reinstalling the system then, after writing me a CD with all the latest drivers that I will need for the setup again, as it's really hard to debug this find of "fuzzy" behaviour.
Another try would be to delete the cache of Second Life in between the starts of the client. Should be somewhere in c:\documents and settings\(your username)\application data\secondlife\cache.. just delete the entire contents of that folder (not the folder itself ,just what is in there). I have no clue why, but this helps in quite some cases for some weird reason.

Have you tried turning off shadows from your SL client's video preferences?
I was locking hard (needed to turn off my PC) and I have had no problems since I turn shadows off.
I don't have SL installed on my work PC so I cannot tell you the exact steps.
Edit/Preferences/Video/Shadows or something like that.
If you can't find it, let me know and I'll check it out once I get home.
Good luck.
Tito

The only graphics intensive game I have is Doom 3 but I don know where it is right now. I can try and find it later. Also I don't think I have Shadows turned on or else they are on and I just don't know how to turn them all the way off.

I tried that using another 3d intensive program and it seems to have worked.
