You guys might remember my rant from a few months back, of Poser7 just randomly crashing. Fixing some nvidia settings fixed that right up.

Unfortunately the slowness poser7 has brought me this time is pretty much halting any work/desire to work.

My runtime is only 17gb - im sure about 8gb of that is random texture PSDs, i don't use externals. 

I reboot daily ( Poser will not function if i try to run it after my system's been in use all day )

I do virus checks and defrags and all that so my computer health is great. Everything else runs great. Photoshop, DAZStudio, even heavy games like Age of Conan.

It's just a poser thing :/

It just took roughly 10mins to render a 91x91 thumbnail with V4's head + 4blueeyes lightset (classic)

in the material room, trying to load image maps, it used to be fast, click browse > bam dialog window. now it takes several seconds ( up to 15 ) for the dialog to display, once I pick a texture its another 15+ seconds of "refreshing" the material room view.

Anyone else had this problem and found a fix?

Running:
WinXP Pro SP3
4 GB ram  ( with or without /3gb switch, poser still runs slow )
2.13ghz dual core intel
500gb 7200rpm harddrive
