Thanks once again folks... Yep latest Patches...I am not too confident about going into the registry and tweaking things if you know what I mean,And if it is Poser 5 changeing things then it is a problem with P5 not my machine,Well now either way I look at it I am goint to have to spend well over a hundred bucks just to figure out what is going wrong with Poser 5.... 1. I either will spend the money on,Getting WinXP which is around $130 bucks OR more if I want to get Professional... 2. Pay some computer Tech to go into my Registry just to see if Poser 5 does change things and if it does then I will also have to pay them for much longer time just to make a backup of my registry and then change the registry before I run Poser 5 to see if that fixes problem,but then it might not so I am out all this money just to be told I am going to have to update my OS Because My Rocket ship Running Win98SE cant handle P5? But before I do get all hot and bothered I will wipe out and re-install Win98SE and get all of the updates and drivers for all of my hardware and then I will first install P5 before anything else and see what happens,I really hope it is this installation of Windows and not P5. I did run the Challenge and send off the e-mail to CL and they e-mailed me back and said to run the patches which I did and still do everytime..and everything would be fine,But it isnt,I think there is still some of the Lock codeing left and P5 see it and locks up so I cant use it...But it still makes me wonder about the running great the first time then BSOD on the second try....Do you folks think that the Registration code thingy is screwing up every installation of P5?Could the patch not have taken everything out and that is why the BSOD happens on running it the second time?And if it might have left stuff in there does anyone know of a TUTORIAL on deleteing all of the P5 BS from Windows....?
