Poser renderings, both in preview mode and the final renders, are done via software rendering. Even if your video card is a 3D accelerated type, it's not being used for anything other than simple 2D screen drawing. The only time you can blame your video card for things not looking right in Poser is if the card's 2D image settings are funny, like for example the gamma setting. Of course, this knowledge cannot be extended to other 3D applications--most can or do take advantage of 3D video cards via OpenGL or DirectX, for their realtime previewing (never for final renders though). Poser is the exception, not the rule. -Adam
