Hello,

An Update:
I finally got Poser 8 SR3 working. Sort of.

Here is what I did.

I hadn't updated my WinXP OS for awhile so I did that.

Installed IE 7 and the newest  Flash player.

Now I don't  exactly which one of these was the cure.

SR3 works now but when it first starts up, I get that same error message but if I click on it, it goes away and the libraries appear (like magic). I haven't tested SR3 extensively for crashes but so far so good.

Anyways Thanks to everyone who replied with help.

Later...

No good deed goes unpunished ...
