i have started as you suggest. I have the DSON and the essentials. ALthough I think one had a different name, i think it is Starter Essentials for Poser instead of the CF you mentioned. I have them all on my hard drive now (secondary HD, my main one is SSD). WHen I went back to DAZ, I was happy to see that all of my old purchases were still available for me, so I have M4 and a few morphs. I still have not done the installation yet, maybe this weekend. Thx
