I use Windows XP Pro as well.  I uninstalled it completely and then put my Poser 6 back on.  It went right on after uninstalling the New Daz, I wish I still had the old one to put back on.  I am hoping that it is in my recycle.  I will let you know if I can find the old one. 

My son in law said to just go back and wait till the next upgrade then try installing it.  I am frustrated because I also just found the little script thing that allows you to transport as a CR2 directly into Poser.  I was just thinking it might come in real handy.

OH, I should have said he is a software engineer so I think he might know how to keep me out of trouble.  I hope!!
