ive tried starting up with the default SLv2. ive tried starting up with Firestorm beta. ive gone with the beta 2.8. searched the forums and found a vague answer that hinted that Bigfoot network cards dont like second life or that i cant play SL with one. Im looking for an answer that: 1) will tell why this plugin failed. 2) will explain how to keep my network card ACTIVE and play SL 3) why LL doesnt like windows 7 64bit, or atleast, why im seeing more forums based on complaints with the 64 bit version. >>please correct me on errors of assumption. just realy wanna play this game and its frustraiting to keep getting an error so i cant even get past the tearms of service<< here is a list of my specs as ive seen many requests for them to see if a system might be suckish and thats my problem.This system was built by me. Gonna list them as posted on my screen or as close to it. Feel Free to ask for more spefic information. ill do my best to provide it. >Grammar Police please be gentle< OS- Win7 home premium 64 bit.
