After I upgraded to windows 8 the second life is not this more open and says this message: second life is unable to run because your video card drivers did not install properly, are out of date. or are for unsupported hardware

This would have been a good question to post in ANSWERS, where there are already several answers to the question. That would have saved you waiting for an answer.

Go to the web site of the  manufacturer (not microsoft).  Be sure your drivers are up to date.  The drivers shipped with new machines are usually out of date and cause that message.

I recently had problems with win 8 and the graphics drivers not installing properly. It caused sl to refuse to open. I shut down the computer and restarted it then it finished the instillation and all was good. The restart computer choice on the actual update instillation didn't work it seems so i had to do a manual restart.

Also when i do recovery stuff and have to get a ton of back dated updates the first few days the computer doesn't do well. Lots of running slow since its trying to instal so many updates and stuff in the background.
