Quote - OK, here are the first 3 that I think may be important

• OpenGL warning pop-up: this is a general problem with ATI video boards. They are OpenGL 2.1 only (some (even new ones) OpenGL 2.0 only). Vue detects this and changes the OpenGL settings accordingly. With trial and error you can change some of the settings to something better, but I highly recommend using a NVidia card, which support OpenGL 3.1! I recently bought a GForce GTX275 (which is in your price range) and am a happy camper now. No big cubes in the preview window while moving an object but nicely textured 3D objects.

• I can't say anything to the poser options. I'm DAZ-Studio :)

• select your character, click on the left upper preview window and change the handle to 'rotate' (that's directly under 'move'). Grab the circle and rotate your object to taste.

• read that fine manual. It's pretty good and detailed.
