Also- I'm using Win2000 Pro- which may, or may not, make a difference with DS- (I think it does). But OS-wise, XP-Pro is probably just as good (I've heard). Also make sure you try the other options under EDIT, PREFERENCES, : I usually use: Poser Content Directories (choice #2) I have also entered BOTH the "runtimes" AND the "Libraries" separately, which might be redundant, but it may create a cross-reference that could be helpful.
