Over the past day, I've developed a problem with P7 on my new Win7 computer.

When I try to delete a figure or object (or at least some figures or objects), the system crashes.

It also sometimes crashes just as a render finishes -- even an innocuous render with minimal figures and basic draft render settings.

The issue seemed to start yesterday, when 3 things of potential note happened:

  1. I installed a W7 update while running P7

  2. I installed an iTunes update while running P7

  3. I had an issue with a missing bump map - causing the program to slow and/or crash during renders -- repeatedly (until I figured a work-around)

My question for y'all is: Could any or all of these events somehow have corrupted some of the files Poser runs from?

And, if so, should I reinstall SP3 -- or the whole program -- or both?

If I do that, I'm assuming it'll only mess with the program files, not my runtime.  (Which I'd hate to lose; lot of stuff there.)

Or, if not, what should I do?
