Graphic Card Issue

[Sodawater]

I just got nvidia GeForce GTS 450 and every time i try to run second life i receive an error message starting with:

"Second Life is unable to run because your video card drivers did not install properly, are out of date, or are for unsupported hardware."

I've updated the driver but the problem still remains.

Any tips how to fix the problem?

You mean to re-install the driver from CD even if i have the newest version updated from the site?

This is a known issue with Nvidia graphics cards. Sometimes, the Nvidia driver does not install correctly the first time so Second LIfe is not recognising it. Uninstall the driver then install it again and it should work fine. If not post back here using Options > Edit to add comments to your original post.

Just found the official Knowledge Base article which mentions this.
