Hi: I bought a new laptop it is an i7 with 12 gigs of RAM and an Intel 4600 graphics card. I installed Poser Pro 2014 and the latest SR-4 update. Poser opens, and I immediately get a Windows error code saying Poser has to close. I have Windows 8.1 on the laptop. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks, Sherrie

Can you post the full error, code and whatnot?

And you might need to install the Service Update too.

When I bought my 8.1 laptop I had to install the service update before it would work for me.

you shouldn't have to install the updates on a new copy of Poser.

If they sell you a software product there is a concept in the law known as implied intent of merchantability. Meaning it should work when you buy it.   I bought Poser Pro 2014 and could not get  pass the password.  I pulled my hair out for a week with multiple emails to Smithmicro  and finally sent it back. I then had to dispute my credit card charge for 2 months to get my money back. To rub salt in a wound members of this forum acted as it was my fault that the software didn't work. I never recieved an apology from Smithmicro or from this forum. Its a shame because i have wanted a 64 bit version for 2 years and this was a Christmas present to myself as i a am alone. Thanks alot Smithmicro!
