Sure TrekkieGrrrl, it shouldn't have to be like this but it really has been a major headache for me so , at the moment, ANY workaround that enables me to use pose files and render without constantly searching for texture files from the material room is good for me. I hope that SM do sort this one. I wrote this not to imply a complete solution (at least I hope I didn't?) but to maybe get some folk at least useing Poser8 again, which until now I ,at least , had stopped doing.

As for your comment  "So there must be something  else that triggers the error" Your of course absolutely right  and  whatever  it  is I believe it's been inherent, in one form or another , for ages. There allway's appears to be some pretty  basic bug's in poser that  that right from launch adversly effects some systems and not others...or could it be software conflicts? whatever, I personally, have never used any other software (either 2D or 3D) that has caused me so many headaches .

I use Poser at a fairly basic level but I can understand that for a developer the situation is pretty unacceptable but hopefully SM will get Poser sorted, at least they replied to my  ticket which is a  lot more  than either CL or EF  did. Fingers crossed ah?
