Quote - Okay, I am offically ticked off. I have spent all week cleaning out my Poser 9 runtime files and preping for the new program. I installed the new program like I was supposed to- and it did not work. I copied my runtime to my external drive and then removed every Poser file I could find from my hardrive exept the 2014 install files. I cleaned the drive with 3 different drive cleaners, rebooted and then reinstalled the program-

  -And it STILL won't work. It still brings up the Poser 9 logo screen- which it shouldn't know anything about, and then I get that stupid error message again.

At $239 I should not be having these problems. And of course I probably won't be able to reach Smith micro till Tuesday- with my luck, they'll take Memmorial Day off as well as the weekend.

 

One thing it could be depending on what version of Windows if you are using Windows.   If you removed all the Poser files I gather you removed the Poser settings  folders from the hidden appdata folder? 

Your Drive Name:UsersYour NameAppDataRoamingPoser9

I am using Windows 7 and there are a few Poser settings folders hiding in there, but really should not make a difference I have Poser 8 and Poser Pro 2012 still on my system and Poser Pro 2014 installed with no problem..

So it might be something that you did by accident that must have mucked up something on your system and thus making Poser Pro 2014 behave like it is..
