Thank you for the suggestions FyreSpiryt but unfortunately nothing works. I've got the latest service pack, I killed Content Paradise and I've got 6 external runtimes. My loading runtime contains only the textures, Geometry and injections folders because I got tired of relocating them all the time(You think that's the problem, maybe if I moved them also it would work faster?). When it finally loads it takes almost 5 additional minutes to load one of the 6 runtimes. There's nothing I can do about it and unfortunately I find myself opening Poser less and less every day that passes. Short of getting a new faster computer I think that I'm doomed. Niki
