i have Poser 7 ... opened it up ... played with it .. promptly closed it and went back to DAZ studio 
more computer friendly , more people frendly 
and far far more stable even for low end systems - 

ive been useing these programs for along time and the best advice is this ... play with it 
just like playing with toys .. also NEVER try to manipualte the figure in the window .it just doesnt work 
use the dials -  much more control
