Well JB, Since wrote my last happy post, I've done things this weekend with Poser that I never dreamed possible under Win98. I've loaded over a dozen hi res textures complete with bump maps, simultaneous. I've got half a dozen mike/victoria models loaded, with clothes. I have buildings, props and 3D world set - all without 1 single crash. My machine has less resources than yours. I'm very happy with Poser since Win 2k. Good luck with your system. Mat
