All my machines, but one, run Windows 7 , even the ones that were built after Windows 8 was available.  The one machine running XP does so because I have a rather expensive HP scanner unit and there are no Windows 7 drivers and try as I might I could not get it to scan at all on Win 7.   Guess I will stay with XP even after April and just not connect to the Internet, at least until the scanner packs up and needs to be replaced.  I have spare Win 7 licences I can use as I have no intention of moving anything to Win 8.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
