I just installed the SL program, but everytime I try to start it up, it tells me my video card isn't up-to-date/supported and won't start up. However, I have heard in other issues that this has been resolved and it should work since my card is up-to-date. (I use a Compaq Presario SR2163WM model if that helps anything as far as what components it has. At the moment I kinda wished I hadn't jumped into a premium account right when I signed up. I hope someone knows what the problem might be.

Have a look at the 'Second Life System Requirements' webpage at

http://secondlife.com/corporate/sysreqs.php

where it says that your video card is one that has not been tested and so 'compatibility is not certain'.

Well, that's the problema! Xpress good!
I thing the SL viewer should have 2 diferent warnings.. one about UNKNOWN or UNTESTED... and 1 for TROUBLESOME video cards.
