Intel x3100 or gma965



Do you have a brand new pc or mac with a x3100 integrated graphics card? This integrated mobile graphics card needs special settings in the settings file for second life to operate. If you log in to second life and it crashes right before it should load, then this fix could be for you. In the settings file under your windows username, and follow the path from the picture you can access the xml file. You might have to unhide folders if you are using vista. Google that process first. After you have reached the settings xml file add the following entry





This should let you in, hope this helps and sorry about the delay Donna. Your Viao should work now. Also this post may be useless if one of the new builds of second life, that has just been released, automatically configures for the x3100.
