A few months ago I purchased a new computer, as my old one was getting dicey and I wanted to move from Windows XP to Windows 7.  The new system is a lot more powerful with quad core and 12 gigs of ram.  It is of course also 64bit.

Since transferring all my files and installing Poser 7 on the new computer, however, I am encountering unexpected problems.  Often while rendering or trying to make an AVI animation, I suddenly get a message that "Poser. exe has encountered a problem and shut down"  Even if I have carefully saved my work, often as not it will not load the saved .PZ3 file and shuts down again.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Do I need to increase the virtual memory for poser (If so, how?) I get a message asking if I wish to allow an unknown program to make changes to my computer when I start Poser, I assumed this was to allow Win 7 to run a 32 bit program.

Very irritating and frustrating.  Please help.
