Every time I delete anything, even if I change my mind half way through and click on 'Cancel' Poser 7 locks up.  I can delete using the hierachy editor but if I try anything else I have to go to the task manager and stop the process to get out of it.  I have two instances of Poser 7 installed, both on Vista 64 ultimate and this problem only occurs on one machine, not the other.

It also locks up if I try and conform anything to anything... 

I have reinstalled P7/Vista/P7 Updates to no avail.  I have set it as 'run as administrator' and I have tried 'run in compatabilty mode for windows xp service pack 2' all to no avail.

This is driving me mad!

Try reducing the number of undo levels in the Poser General Preferences.

Thanks Phil.  I put it down to 5 but sadly it is still the same :(  I have 4 gb ram.  The weird thing is it works fine on another identical set up! 

Oh and another thing... When you delete and it locks, the hard drive working light flickers as if something is happening, but I left it for 2 hours earlier and it never actually unlocks.
