This used to happen to me all the time when I tried to render a scene with 2 Vicky & Mike characters. Then I updgraded off Windows 98 and everything worked fine. The sad fact is: Poser 4 + high-polygon models + hi-res textures + Windows 98 = Poser lockups. Do a search through the past message threads and you can read about all the other people who have problems with Poser & Windows 98. I don't mean to sound harsh, but it's September 2002- it's time to upgrade your 4 year old operating system... especially if you want to use "state of the art" software like the Mill Dragon and Poser 5. --John
