I get an Error box when I try to install V4 or anything else to just installed Poser 7
on a Dell desktop with Windows 7.
Here is what is says: Error reading INI file C:Program Files(x86)Common FilesDaz
If anyone has a solution to my problem, please help.
Thanks

When does this error occur? When running the installer?

The error box appears when trying to install any content into Poser 7.

Have you set the proper admin authorization before installation? If this protocol is not established, Poser installed into the Program Files folder will be interfered with by Windows builtin security settings. Either establish authorization in the UAC or re-install Poser in it's own folder on the core drive.

Thank you for your help. What does UAC mean and where can I find it to establish the protocol you talked about. Thanks!

User Account Control. I have included 2 links which describes what it is and how to work around it.

I, myself, am not running Vista/Windows7 just yet. Hopefully the articles will help you out and perhaps someone else may chime in with further instructions.
