I'm not a techy, but I just got my computer rebuilt into Windows 7, 64 bit professional, 8 gigs of ram, quad core.  My tech person was afraid of the XP emulator and did not install it.  So the question is, will Poser 8, Photoshop, and Vue 7 run under this setup, or do I need to install the emulator?  I know that's probably an ignorant question -- seems to me I'm going to have to have the emulator.  But info would be useful.
