Hi. Haven't seen the previous thread, but your description of your problem isn't detailed enough for 'at a distance' trouble shooting. Please .. talk us through what you do that leads to the problem. And don't leave out any steps. So, for instance:-

• Start pc, XP loads with/without any error messages
• Screen resolution is X by Z, Y-bit colours
• I have A, B and C programs loading automatically from my Start Up menu
• Now I think of it, I installed Q program shortly before the Poser problem surfaced.
• I start Poser4 (use P4 as it's probably the most stable version, and certainly easier to diagnose problems for than P5), and my default set up opens. Describe your default setting.
• I do 'this' then 'that' and 'the other' happens (detail is important here)
• My 'preferred' render settings are (size and resolution). My screen and video card allow this (check with PS or PSP).
• Ctrl+Alt+Del > Processes > CPU > the following programs are using system resources
• I have/haven't tried rolling back to a previously known good configuration in my OS.
  etc etc etc. You never know what tiny clue might lead to the answer, so don't be shy. Tell all.
