I am in the process of upgrading PC's and it's time to switch Poser to the new 'puter (poser 5). Can I just copy the contents of the runtime folder from the old pc to the new one? Thanks.

I did exactly that and it only trashed one file, so I'd say it's reasonably safe.

Actually you can copy the whole installation as is. Done that plenty: once when switching to a new comp and hundreds of times making an automated backup copy of the whole installation to an external hd - it works from the external usb2 drive as well.
