Here try this. Load up P5 and then wait as per looong while. You should see the default figure there. Delete this figure so that you've no figures/props/models etc loaded. Then go to EDIT > GENERAL PREFERENCES Here, set the Launch to Preferred State radiobox. Then click on the Set Preferred state. Assuming your like me you would open up a current workfile or work on other figures rather than defaults. Everytime you open poser it will load without then loading up the additional model(s) which should be MUCH faster. HTH
