Allright, i didnt want to bother ya all, but i already asked for all the help i could out of here, and after a week trying, with no success, i beg ya all to help me with this:

I installed and created my account with no problems, got everything ready and tried to start playing SL, when the game was loading the data to enter the game, it suddenly stopped on this steps ( sometimes one, sometimes the other ) " connecting to region " or " recaching " , when the load reached thsi point, it all suddenly closed, when i tried to open it again, it detected the game as a crash.

I tried getting Windows SP2, since i was told some people had problems getting into SL without it, i also removed my firewall, and had every possible setting changed to let it run.

Nothing happened, it crashes once and again and again on the same point, my PC is not great, but its just around the minimun limits to play, can someone tell me what to do?

EDIT: I just tell ya, this is really annoying, i already made someone pay me this account, and now i cant play....i hate the feeling i just wasted money....

What type of video card, processor, memory, etc..etc..

Makes sure newest video driver, update chipset, bios, defrag, scandisk, windows update, scan and remove spyware...

anything more specific, need to know what you got in your PC..

This would likely be it, and is unfortunately lower than minimum system requirements. It's not supported, sorry. :(

I'd recommend at least an Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 or equivalent for an enjoyable experience.

Unfortunately, SL doesn't support S3 video. You need an ATI, Nvidia or Intel video card for it to work.
