"To everyone who's stuck with a copy of Poser 5 that doesn't work well on their system, you have my sympathies. I'm sorry you got burned" Yep....I am one and have gone to the "Source" The reply is upgrade your operateing system to WinXP...No problem...I just need to save the money,Just saveing 20$ a paycheck is going to take a long time... Personally I think the program came out to fast and without enough Beta-testing on many Platforms,And then to make matters worse the Company(CL)Axes everybody who could have helped save the Product from a certain DEATH...The only way is to redo the product from the ground up and re-code to use 3D acceleration and Make all of the "ROOMS" as extra Modules the user can install on command...I think they were going in the right direction but were gearing or at least trying to get the higher end user Maya,Lightwave,Imagine ect to use Poser figures more in their Projects and were saveing PPP for us other folks.... All I ask is for a working copy.......?
