The Celeron is not a very good CPU for multimedia. 2.5Ghz is a good speed though, so you have that much. However, with only (I assume) 256MB of RAM, with 64MB of it shared by the video subsystem, and again I assume, with on-board video, you are going to have a heck of a time with OpenGL, especially with something as math intensive as Poser. As far as virtual memory, if you are not totally sure of how to manipulate it, you should just let Windows manage it for you. Win does a good job of it anyway. The general rule with virtual memory though is, 2 times the amount of RAM. In your case that would only be about 512MB. Again, I would let Windows just manage it. But increasing your total RAM, and if you have an AGP slot on your motherboard, you may want to consider getting even a lower end graphics card, so you get the seperated RAM and graphics processor, should give you a significant performance boost. (Keep in mind also, the memory leak problem to be fixed by CL in the first update.) Good Luck! [Edited to make some more sense.]
