Well I just started playing SL a few days ago, but last night the game crashed and sent me back to the desktop. I tried to log in again but seconds after I logged in it would just crash again. So I gave up and hoped today the problem would be fixed. It's not, now I can't even stay on for a second! I can't even play the game! Is there a way to fix or treat this problem? Or is this the end?

Well, assuming nothing else has changed and you were able to play with some reliablility before, it's probably a corrupt cache.
De-install and re-install Second Life. You won't lose anything (except settings tweaks) all your "stuff" is on the servers.

Same Problem
09-08-2005 16:38
I have updated my video card, unloaded and reloaded SL twice and still I am lucky to stay on for 15 at a time before crashing. I have cleaned up and defragged my hard-drive. I have run Spy-Bot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware. I have run Nortan Anti-Virus.
This is a new problem for me and seemed to coincide with the last release. There is more to this than a corrupt cache. I wonder if SL has become sooo huge that the video card RAM or the CPU usage has reached beyond my computer's capabilities. thats the only thing I can figure out. Anyone know for sure?
