Here is the procedure I followed that worked with no problems. My box is running WinXP pro. Poser 5 was already on my system. Installed Vue 4.12 from CD. I ran it to make sure it was working. Installed Vue 4.2 patch. Created a Poser scene to import into Vue. Opened Vue and Imported Poser pz3 file. Vue asked me where Poser was located on my hard drive. I used browse to find the Poser.exe file. Vue validated my Poser 5 serial number and them imported the pz3 file. This step took a LONG TIME so be patient. The result is in my gallery.
