    Well,  not sure exactly which option worked for sure, but I'm now able to use the portable to stay online for more than 20 mins,  I tried the option of downloading the software from  INTEL as per the link, and then set all my 3D setting to ON in the ATI  graphics setup in the bottom system tray. I also propped up the machine to allow more air circulation underneath. Graphics not great, but can move and talk.  Also set the statistics option on and watched the FPS as I was using it,  It never got to Green, but hovered between  Yellow and Red, but it worked!

    Will try some more tuning, to see if I can improve, but think the limitations of the grapics are what they are. Did try to take the settings off of low to medium, but lag became unbearable.

    So a tiny step forward.

    Thank you all for your responses.

    Thanks Calveen, will check it out,

    Also found an interesting article here,

    http://software.intel.com/en-us/blogs/2007/11/29/there-is-a-hack-for-second-life-and-the-intel-965-chipset/

    Which talks a bit to this issue as well, most of the freezing problems are talked about a the bottom of this long list.

    So if you have this problem on a laptop don't give up because some folks have got it to work. I will try some of the suggestions and report back.

    Hi Irene,  Checked out that link,  and basically what they say there is that SL won't work very well  because of the graphics card, but what is strange is that for the first 5 - 10 minutes I think its quite good, it only gets bad over time.

    Thank you for responding..

    I have a HP 6910p  Intel duo processor

    Intel's PM965 Graphics,

    2gb RAM

    Running XP Home (Service Pack 3)

    I recently install the latest version of SL .Sl loads fine and seems to be working fine but after about 5 -10 minutes  it starts to get slower and slower to a point where I can't move, Can't type and can't pull down any of the drop down menus.

    I have downloaded from HP all the latest drivers, but it had no impact. Has anyone seen this before and knows what I need to do to fix? Or has any ideas what I can try?

    Thank you.
