Quote - Okay it sounds like you have content installed in multiple runtimes.  When Poser asks you to locate any files on loading something it is a big red flag.  Save yourself a ton of pain and re-install the flagship V4/M4 type stuff in your main runtime.  Only load it from there.  I know the DAZ installer will allow you to install it wherever but this kind of thing shows up pretty often when you install the DAZ flagship characters in a runtime location other than the default.

Also please just see if you can render an empty scene with NO CONTENT loaded, see if it crashes.  It'd be good to narrow down whether the problem is with the content or Poser itself.

This is not recommended with Vista or Windows 7 and is not needed. You should keep all your Victoria Morphs, Characters, and the Figure in the same Library, but it does not have to be the Main Library and does not have to be the Program Files Folder.

Poser has not required any figure to be in the Main Library since Poser 4.

If you had V4 or M4 in a Library and moved that Library, you will want to run the Fixer File again, or reinstall those figures to the new Library location. There is a KB Article at Smith Micro on installing the DAZ3D Figures with the installers that say you have to install into the Main Program Folder.

If you still have issues, contact support... you can ask for me (John) if you want.
