Esha - you didn't understand what I was saying. You gave me Poser related problem/solution descriptions. Take Poser out of the equation.
Either Vue doesn't like Poser as well as they hoped, or Poser doesn't like other apps, so resources go down the tubes - which is why when you lower the res of the Poser texture maps (and thereby freeing up RAM resources - get it?) it works "better".
Try bringing in a generic 3D mesh that has nothing to do with Poser. Bring it in with multiple massive texture maps and you'll find zero problems with your scene, animation, moving the viewports, rendering, etc. Download something from scifi3d, Evermotion, Dosch or 3DTotal, or one of the things on the 3D World discs - NOT Poser related things they periodically have on the disc, but cars, tanks, furniture, etc.
The problem isn't texture maps, but Poser and its convoluted file saving and reading system that is a beast all its own. Load any regular mesh and it's textures, no problem.
Good luck-
