Need Help: Second Life is unable to run...

[Hylian Moonwall]

"Second Life is unable to run because your video card drivers did not install properly, are out of date, or are for unsupported hardware. Please make sure you have the latest video card drivers and even if you do have the latest, try reinstalling them."

 

Is Anybody Else Plagued With This Issue???

I Just Replace Most Of The Interior Parts In My Computer (Video Card, Motherboard, RAM) And Upgraded From Windows Xp to Windows 7 Professional And Am Having Trouble Logging In          (Let Alone Opening The Second Life Viewer).

I Checked The System Requirements And Everything Passes Minimum. I Have A 'ATI RADEON 9600 Series'  Video Card And Am Still Un Able To Access The Game.

Does Anybody Have Any Ideas On What I Should Do?

 I Am Out Of Ideas And Haven't Been On SL In 15 Months And Am Getting Desperate!!! :smileyindifferent:

If you are sure everything is right and its a bad message you could try disabling the hardware check.

Create a copy of the SL shortcut on your desktop, right-click it and go to properties and change the end of the target to --noprobe

For example on mine it would change from

"C:\Program Files (x86)\SecondLifeViewer2\SecondLife.exe"  --set InstallLanguage en

to

"C:\Program Files (x86)\SecondLifeViewer2\SecondLife.exe"  --noprobe

Of course if there really is a problem with your card or drivers thats not going to help.

[Hylian Moonwall]

It Still Didn't Work. But I Just Bought The Card And I Checked The Device Manager And It Says "Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date."

I Am Aware Other Residents Have Had This Problem Before And Am Drawing A Blank On Solutions

[Peewee Musytari]

Did it still give the same message or just not login?

 

[Hylian Moonwall]

Same Message

"Second Life is unable to run because your video card drivers did not install properly, are out of date, or are for unsupported hardware. Please make sure you have the latest video card drivers and even if you do have the latest, try reinstalling them."

[Peewee Musytari]

Oh well that was an epic fail lol sorry...Go back to other shortcut.

 

Also go to http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx and reinstall the latest drivers from there. Make sure you have all applications closed when you do it and especially don`t have any antivirus program running in the background.

[Hylian Moonwall]

Alright, Haha, Thanks For The Feedback. But I Still Cant Get On XP

[Peewee Musytari]

Hmm..now you lost me, I thought you replaced XP with Windows 7...Not sure what your last message means lol

[Hylian Moonwall]

I Didn't Notice The

Part. And XP Was An Emotecon Haha.

[Peewee Musytari]

LOL too funny ....its nearly 3am here I thought I was losing the plot hehe

[Hylian Moonwall]

Haha, "http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx" Doesn't Appear To Be Bringing Anything Useful Up

[Peewee Musytari]

Clicking Windows 7 32bit or 64bit should take you to the downloads, the latest is the 11.3 Catalyst Suite.

[Hylian Moonwall]

I Will Check That ^.^
