Well, I finally got it to work. I uninstalled it for about the fifth time and deleted everything I could find associated to it, then I created a new folder called DAZ in my Program Files directory and installed the whole shebang into that DAZ folder. Now it works. shrug But it's really slow. I tried to render something and it crashed, but I think I had been running some other programs like Photoshop among others, so I had probably spent my resources before I opened DS. Anyway, I'm finally up and running. Melanie
