I've been having very weird issues with Poser and I wanted to know if anyone else had had this problem or had a clue what was going on. I will be going along, doing my thing and suddenly my computer will turn off. Just off. Dead. Like someone pulled the plug... only it's a lap top with a battery in it so that wouldn't work. It is not the cord or the battery. I am pretty sure it has something to do with Poser for several reasons: 1) It only happens when I have been using Poser. It does not always happen when I am actualy doing something IN poser, but always when I have poser open or have had it open. If I don't use Poser for long stretches of time (say, durring school when I don't have time to play) it doesn't happen. 2) It only started doing this after I installed the Michel and Victoria models from DAZ. Before that Poser would crash itself ocasionally, but my computer never turned itself off! Given that, I think perhaps I should write DAZ's tech support and see if they have any idea what's wrong. But I thought I'd see if anyone else here had had any similar issues first. It's driving me batty:p Relevent info: the computer is a Dell Insprion. The opperating system is Windows ME The poser program is Poser 4. The models I bought from DAZ are Micheal 2, Vicktoria 2 and the tunic back. I instaled them all at about the same time, and the problem started shortly thereafter.
