I would like to know if there is any descernable difference in Poser Pro 2012 and Poser Pro 2014 in XP 32bit?
I am honestly considering rolling back to XP because of CS2 difficulties and other software compatability issues in windows 7. Plus PP2012 seems a lot slower in Windows 7 and no better clarity.
So since there doesn't seem to be any obvious benefits between PP 2012 in XP and Windows 7 comparatively, I wondered if any one now has PP 2014 and that are still using XP(*32)?
Thank you.

I may be incorrect. I usually am , but isn't the Pro version of Poser 64 bit? If so it isn't going to run on a 32 bit system.

Poser Pro 2014 comes with both 64 and 32 versions, so no problem there.
As to a speed comparison, my Win 7 machine running Poser Pro 2014 64bit renders significantly faster than Poser Pro 2014 64 bit on the same machine.
While I suspect that some of that some of that speed gain may be better 64bit coding: I think that the 2014 32bit version should be quicker than the 2012 version.
Plus 2014 has some very cool toys to play with of course :) I'm very fond of the physics myself, I've spent many an idle moment dropping heavy objects on Vickies head. So far she seems oblivious, but time will tell :)

SM realized a wealth of functional enhancements from PPro2012 to PPro2014, which however does not mean that these are relevant for your specific needs. Some people are still happy with PPro2010.
To my knowledge, all PPro's run fine in XP32 and will install the 32bit version only then. Have you considered XP64?
Just a suggestion: when you consider running (any) Poser in a windows 32bit environment, it might be of some help to read my tutorial http://www.book.artbeeweb.nl/?p=110 in passing the 2Gb user mem boundary, to handle larger scenes. Please use the !Download Fix! menu to get the PDF in properly.

I agree with having Win XP 64 bit...Only thing even if you can find you would lose everything... I personally don't like Win7 either...
