I can only highly recommend you to upgrade to a 64 bit environment and pack as much ram into it as possible.

I had a lot of problems on WIN 32 bit with 4 GIgs, since i am on 8 GIG and Win64 i have never had Poser crashing ever, even when loading six or seven M4s and V4s....

its really worth the investment....
