No viewers besides imprudence will start up.

[Damon Adonide]

For a while now, I've been trying to use viewers such as Phoenix, firestorm, singularity and even exodus. NONE of them will start properly.

 

I get the small loading, detecting hardware, etc. box, but when it goes to open the program window, it stops working and my system tells me it's encountered a problem. 

Again, this happens with EVERY viewer I've tried on here besides Imprudence. I would use that, but it lacks needed functions. It used to work back when I didn't have a laptop, but now that that's broken I need to use this computer.

 

My computer is an Acer Aspire M1100 with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual core processor 4000+     2.10GHz

2.00 GB of RAM and The system type is a 32 bit.

Graphics card is an ATI Radeon X1250

 

Please help D:

I'm going to guess that the viewers are running out of system resources. Second Life Viewer 3.2.5 takes more than 2GB of RAM on my system when running. Also, that is a really old video card you listed. 32bit shouldn't be a problem but 4GB RAM and a faster video card would help.

If you really don't think it's hardware related, all those viewers may have conflicting settings. Try a truely clean install by uninstalling all the viewers as well as their caches and the settings they hide in your home directory (location is system dependent). Then install and test the one you prefer. If it works don't go installing all the others.

I'm afraid that Curious is right.  You are working on an old laptop with an old graphics gard and insufficient memory.  You will probably only be able to get a V1 codebase viewer like Imprudence or 1.23 to run on it.  V2/V3 codebase viewers need a fancier machine.

Hello Damon and welcome to SL Forums. Your graphics card also is so "weak" for SL. Maybe you can try to open a viewer only with LOW graphics. The old viewer 1.23 and generally V1 viewers sounds a good suggestion for me also.

See, you'd be right under any other circumstances.. But i have used these viewers before. and my laptop that i had been using was even older than this computer.

I have used all these viewers before, but suddenly they wont start up.
