Gee Dizzi,

I looked over the thread a few more times but I just don't see your "help." If you're not clueless, then what's pxp's problem? Expert help from you would be much more useful than sarcasm toward someone who's genuinely trying to assist.

pxp: FWIW, if you have some tech skills, you might want to try the following: 

Before you load Poser, do a ctrl alt del to get into the Task Manager and look at what processes are running (the process tab). Many programs that you install will load some background process that is constantly interrupting the CPU. One of the most problematic is caused by "Drag-and-Drop" CD burning software, although there can be numerous others created by everything from printers to smartcard picture downloading software. 
It may take some intelligent R&D, but try ending all these unnecessary processes. They can whack Poser pretty badly and cause some of the symptoms you describe.
Do not end explorer, but almost everything else that is absolutely needed by the system will tell you that it can't be ended and even if you create a problem, all you have to do is reboot and everything will come back, AFAIK. 

I do this regularly before I load Poser and it seems to smooth out all the bumps and grinds.

HTH,
