Quote - Wow. Ok I was wrong but I'm guessing because Windows 98 only saw up to 2 gigs of ram that's what makes it work. Someone in another thread was saying they got it to work in Vista by lowering their ram though.

Thanks for the heads up on that earlier thread. I'll try the lower RAM trick and report back (eventually)!

Quote - Maybe run it in compatibility mode for XP?

Keeping in mind, poser 4 was never written to work on Vista at all. Could be it just plain it too old to work on vista.. after all it was written what, 6-8 YEARS before vista was released.

You were right, but had to drop the compatibility down to Windows 98!!! And then it worked.

There are still minor display issues, but it basically works.

Thanks!

I seem to remember reading about how a whole bunch of older generation software will not run on Vista.  Thanks for the tip about P5.

Just amazing. Your generosity is ... is .. too much!

America really invented cute, when you think about it.

When Japan was rebuilding after the war, America built the world's greatest edifice to cute and led the Disneyfication of the world.  

Look at the phenomenon of Shirley Temple and the like.

The cult of cute is alive and well on Renderosity. Even the leather-clad warriors are "cute".

For a quick lesson on the history of the word from the American Heritage Dictionary:

"Word History: Cute is a good example of how a shortened form of a word can take on a life of its own, developing a sense that dissociates it from the longer word from which it was derived. Cute was originally a shortened form of acute in the sense "keenly perceptive or discerning, shrewd." In this sense cute is first recorded in a dictionary published in 1731. Probably cute came to be used as a term of approbation for things demonstrating acuteness, and so it went on to develop its own sense of "pretty, fetching," first recorded with reference to "gals" in 1838."
