Please forgive this rant, but I just have to say this. I don't know how many posts I've read and contributed to here about Poser 5 and specifically about system requirements. Allyou have to do is search the topic "Poser 5" and up jumps a crapload of posts. While I feel badly that it's not working properly on your machine drag, frankly, "it is you". I wish people would do a bit of research here, at Poser Pros, at RDNA, etc., etc., before they jump up and buy Poser 5. The system requirements listed on that box and probably at the CL website are misleading! I and many others have stated a number of times in a number of posts that Poser needs lots of ram. It needs a fast processor. It needs an operating system than can manage it's dumb ass (which is not any flavor of Windows 9x, BTW). But in spite of the repetitive posting on this topic, sure as hell along comes someone else who can't get Poser 5 to work on a Pentium III running windows 98!! I also have a message for Curious Labs: If you are still telling your customers that they can use this software successfully on a PIII with 128 mb of ram.....STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Drag, if you're going to use Poser 5, get a new computer. If you can't get a new computer, put Poser 5 on a shelf until you can. Now.....I know the next thing that will happen is someone who has a PII with 64 mb of ram will post and say: "Hey....whaddya mean!! I can run it just fine.....goes really fast tew and I can render 95 figures widout a prublem in less than 10 sexunds!!!" Ya, right!!
