Still only one life…

OK, I tried, honestly I did.  I registered, downloaded the software, installed it.

Clicked on the Second Life icon with trembling or should I say quaking fingers and then… I waited…

“Your graphics card is not supported… “

I am assuming this is a Second Life-Vista related issue as I have a standard modern laptop running a standard modern video card (with loads of memory).

I’m sure this is detailed in a forum somewhere, I’ll have to take a look….

 

Update:

Just as I thought.

    That’s not all. Keep looking…last I saw many video cards (Intel, etc) that are integrated, or “Standard” aren’t supported.

    Second life is for pathetic pussy losers. Don’t even bother signing up for it.

    Kevin,
    It looks like any non-OpenGL compatabile video card won’t run which is a pity. I imagine they’ll fix this….

    “Outta Names”,
    I disagree and don’t think that’s a terrubly constructive comment.

    Tom, please keep trying – we need more Irish Second Lifers for the next BlarneyCamp (ie. virtual BarCamp held in the Blarney Stone Pub in the Dublin sim).
