Hello, My friend and I are experiencing the weirdest thing ever. I don't know if anybody else has experienced this but we need help because it's frustrating. I have a Blue Snowball mic that I use for voice on SL and other platforms and it works perfectly for everyone and everywhere except for my friend. What she hears when I speak is pure static and it is loud and obnoxious (yes I've head it through a phonecall and it's awful). At first I thought it was the viewer, since it worked fine before the BoM update (we use Firestorm Version 6.3.2.58052) We've tried to figure out what the problem is, cause here's the kicker: EVERYONE else sound fine to her, but me. So what's the problem? We tried reinstalling the viewer, I made sure my input was my mic, and even without it using my mic in my laptop, it's the same awful audio coming through her end. Her speakers are fine, like I mentioned everyone else sounds good, so why is mine not coming through how I hear it to her? Also location hasn't changed anything, it occurs no matter where we go. If this can't be fixed, is there a way she can turn my mic down or mute me without having to block or unfriend me? Thank you in advance!

I hope someone can help me with this. I bought two gtx 960 get force graphics cards from china I have tried to use them with second life. But it seems after I have signed in to second life the minute I start moving I get kicked off sl. I don't know if these cards are knock offs or fake gtx 960 ti. I can do everything else with them but sl kicks me off after I have been on or start to move happens every time. I would like to know if there is a solution to this. any help would be appreciated

So I saw someone else having a problem like this here posted in the forum but I tried the things they suggested and it didnt help. And mine is not just all the sound, the voice and other sounds are separate. One thru headset and the voices thru the speaker. So my request is pretty specific. I’ve tried a few things, to no avail. So here I am, desperate cause I love having voice chat. Text chat is hard cause it would be nice if people’s text showed above their head in a bubble so I wouldn’t have to see ALL conversation within a radius. If someone is close to me I’d like to see what THEY say and not the other person 5 feet away from me. So yeah so far voice chat is very important for me cause I have a hard time with nearby text chat sometimes. And I don’t want to us IM unless I’m really comfortable with that person. I hate when people IM me like a creeper and I feel alone and uncomfortable cause no one else can see. So, I’ll give you the stats I know about my computer. I think it has 1 terabyte of memory, idk how much ram, it’s a dell XPS 15 laptop, intel core i7, and Nvidia GeForce Graphics. I can find other stats if you need. I use the second life viewer. I don’t really like the firestorm viewer cause it’s missing some convenient buttons I like in the SL viewer. I’m very new to SL so still learning. Only used it for like 6-7 days so far. Thank y'all so much.

Hello all, I hope that someone can help me as I'm nearly at my wits end with SL. Since I moved home 3 months ago, I haven't been able to join SL on wi-fi; after 2 minutes I'm constantly logged out with the message: I've tried everything; different browsers, a complete wipe of my PC, playing around with the WiFi router settings and absolutely nothing has worked. At a previous address (on an apparently slower wifi), I never had a problem and now I can't so much as login without being checked out. Other online games are not affected; downloads and uploads are fine on other systems/PS4/Netflix etc...its just SL! I ran a speedtest that gave me the following but I'm not tech minded enough to understand the results: Can anyone advise on what I can do to try and make this work? I ran a search on the forum but couldn't find anyone with exactly the same problem. Thanks in advance. Hannah x
