Maybe running ME has something to do with the problems I had rendering, I just don't know. I do know that I've found a solution that works for me. Maybe some of the others who have posted here with the same problem I had will find some use for my tip. I guess I should have titled this as "If you are running Windows ME, have your screen resolution set at 800 x 600, and Poser freezes up when you try and render in a new window...read this!" LOL

My idea of rebooting is kicking somebody in the butt twice!
