First of all hello everyone, first post though I've been lurking around for a while.

I recently bought Poser 5 and I've noticed that for some reason my library is missing a "Materials" section. Now, I can actually choose materials from the menu when I click on a category and then click on the category name within it while it's displaying the folders (and I hope I'm making sense when describing it like this). But there is no main Materials category in my library. Anyone know a way to fix this or is it supposed to be like that? The manual does have photos of the library with that category in it though.

Btw, anyone know any links to or tips on dealing with improving performance in it? I have an Athlon XP1800 and 1 gigabyte of PC2700 RAM and this program is very slow, especially when rendering. I'm going to change the processor to a 2400+ because they're pretty cheap, but there's still got to be a way to make it run better than the way it does.
