I am running Win98 w/256M ram and having problems with the DAZ3d MAT files for Victoria 2. Everything seems to work well until I try to render the image and the program goes off to 'la-la land'. Doesn't say 'Not Responding'. Just not doing anything either - even 12 hours later. DAZ tells me it's my system. Take the images and reduce the resolution until it works. When I originally talked with them about this the tech said I need 256M, I told him that I had that... (sigh) Now they just are saying "Sorry. Check with the forums and see what other people have done to fix the problem." They admit that it does happen but don't know why. (sigh) Anyone have constructive thigns I should try? I've reloaded my system and that didn't fix it either. As long as I don't use the MAT files all works well. THANKS!!
