Yeppers, this time it's hit me. I'm not loving this latest update, because since it came out, I can't upload/download images of any sort. The game crashes and horribly, everytime. Cleaned the Cache and Temp file, did a reinstall from a fresh download of the setup, but still it crashes when I try to upload. I'm not going to bother checking the videodrivers since everything else about the game seems to be working fine, not to mention that this happens simply upon my click the Upload Image button or even using ctrl-u.

Any suggestions?

Hi! I was unable to reproduce your problem here in the office. I checked out your crash report and I'm seeing you are running ATI OpenGL driver version 1.5.4.4852. Currently, ATI is at OpenGL version 2.0.4955. Updating your drivers may fix this problem.

Please report bugs using Help > Report Bug in the Second Life client software. We do not have a way of tracking bugs reported via the forums and only occasionally stumble over them. Thanks!

Okay, I feel like an idiot.

Yes, it does appear that updating the video drivers allows me to actually upload and download now.

Next question is probably pretty idiotic but I know next to nothing about videocards and their drivers.

What does the video drivers have to do with uploading/downloading anything in the game?I found out it wasn't just images, but sounds too. (scratching head) I could see doing it for things like slow and non-responsive graphics, but uploading and downloading?
