"...program can only address 2gb of memory total." It's not a Poser limitation, it's an operating system limitation. If Poser 7 is 64 bit then there's hope -- if you have a 64 bit system of course :-) "By definition, a 32-bit processor uses 32 bits to refer to the location of each byte of memory. 2^32 = 4.2 billion, which means a memory address that's 32 bits long can only refer to 4.2 billion unique locations (i.e. 4 GB). In the 32-bit Windows world, each application has its own virtual 4GB memory space. (This means that each application functions as if it has a flat 4GB of memory, and the system's memory manager keeps track of memory mapping, which applications are using which memory, page file management, and so on.) This 4GB space is evenly divided into two parts, with 2GB dedicated for kernel usage, and 2GB left for application usage. Each application gets its own 2GB, but all applications have to share the same 2GB kernel space.""Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance." - H. L. Mencken
