I'm glad you got things going. This is the way I understand a pz3 file: It is actually a "roadmap" or recipie that points to where the actual items are found. If you send me the pz3 file, it won't work unless I have every item you had setup, in the same place where you had all the items setup. In your case it appears you "moved over" stuff. That really puzzles me. If I want a program to be on a new hard drive or computer, I reinstall the program. I don't "move" any program over anywhere. Poser does have the runtime folder. You can safely zip all those folders within the runtime folder and actually copy them over somewhere. You would in essence be keeping "your poser installation" after a fashion. You'd still need to install Poser on that new hard drive or computer first. Does that make sense? In essence, you supplied Poser with a roadmap that was no longer accurate. Poser kept complaining. Poser is not very sophisticated when it provides error messages. The most common one is "not enough memory." That error message is, in many cases, false. It's just Poser's way of saying "I have a problem." I hope this helped in some way. Ron
