I finally just had enough of my Windows Vista installation on my quad proessor 4gig system NVidia 8500GT. After the most recent Windows update poser was running dead slow (unusable).

So I used an old Win XP Pro disk and installed a dual boot. I didn't connect to the net once so no updates etc. I activated by phone.

Oh my God. Poser is actually working sooooooo much better that its frightening. No, not frightening - its FANTASTIC!!!

So, in case you've been wondering whether to do it or not, thats my story.

Incidentally, if your PC is running nothing but Poser is there any reason to have Vista?

best wishes to all
