Hi Remy, All,
I finally got this fixed, using the following instructions:
Find the "user_settings" folder under your Second Life folder that is
under AppData or Applications Data.
(It may be different whether you have XP or Vista.
Also on one of my systems this file is under .../Roaming/Second
Life/user_settings/ )
Note also you will have a folder with your Avatar's name.
Don't change the settings.xml file in that folder - change the one in
the user_settings folder.
* Find this folder on your system:
\Users\myname\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife\user_settings\settings.xml. You
will have to manually add the command to disable Object Occlusion to
this file. The lines to add are:
o <!--Enable object culling based on occlusion (coverage) by other
objects-->
o <UseOcclusion value="FALSE"/>
* Save the setting.xml file and then try to connect to Second
Life.
If you can't find this file, it may be hidden so go into your Folder
Options and "Show hidden files."
It worked for me, but obviously beware, you may have a different issue.
Cheers
Paul

Hi Paul,
I'd be very interested in your progress on this if you don't mind. I
haven't
been able to get the client to work on my vista machine either, but I
must
admit I haven't tried the driver - will do that next.
Best regards, Remy.

Gary, Roger,
Thanks for your advice, both. I'll try the driver first.
Cheers

Hi,
I had the same problem on one machine here (but using XP). I updated the
display drivers (in fact I think I deleted the display adaptor
completely,
then re-installed).
All fine now.
Other machines with same chip set working fine

[SECONDLIFE] secondlife falls over
Hi Everyone,
May I have some advice, please?
Secondlife falls over for me every time at the ?Connect? stage. I am
running MS Vista, 32-bit, with 1 Gig memory, 2 GHz processor, and a
Mobile
Intel 965 Exrpess Chipset Family display adapter.
Is one of these components inadequate ? I am guessing it?s the display
adapter, but it would help if someone could point me in the right
direction on this one.
Thanks
Paul
