I doubt the GT 240 can handle shadow and everything in SL, especially if it only has 128MB RAM.  An up to date nvidia graphics driver may help though, rather than the generic Windows one.  With Windows 7 and only 2GB of RAM your whole system is going to be struggling with SL to be honest.  To fix it don't enable shadows ^^

HOWEVER - the much bigger problem you'll be having at the moment is that almost all of SL is broken.  http://status.secondlifegrid.net/  Even if you can sort out your computer the grid isn't going to play well.

I know im ressing the topic but i get the same error everytime i check the shadow box, after few seconds it crashs!

I tried the last beta one (Second Life 3.4.0 (263727)) but still same error...

Something is wrong with Second Life and the GT240 ddr3.... (secondlife sees it as beeing the GT240M for somereason)

and yes... the GT240 can not be a high-end but still can handle shadows in secondlife around 10- 20 fps on full sims...

 

 

CPU: Intel® Core i5-2310 CPU @ 2.90GHz (2893.47 MHz)

Memory: 8163 MBs

OS: Microsoft Windows 7 64-bit Service Pack 1 (Build 7601)

 

And btw it has 1gb of ram not 128mb as PeterCanessa Oh said.
