Not Enough Memory :(
-----------------------------------
Hi group, I hope I'm not hogging this forum, but I've got another vexing problem with poser; not quite as serious as a few of the others I've posted here, but one that's frustrating and time consuming nonetheless.

Whenever I do a trial 1/4 size render, then click back on Preview, I'll get this message over a blank grey preview window:

The preview image will eventually come back on but with several figures lacking any texture. They look like ghosts. No matter what I do, I can't re-load the missing texture maps onto them and have to close out poser and reopen it to continue. This only happens on 1/4 size renders. Some of my full-size renders (800x600) take three or four hours to finish and I dont have that much time, especially when the picture needs a lot of fine-tuning that only can be achieved by multiple trial renders! 

Has anybody had this problem, and is there any work-around short of getting a faster computer? I'm using an old windows xp workhorse with a gig of ram that I keep off line so I don't have a bunch of AV software hogging my cpu. At the rate I'm going, I'll be ready for the retirement home by the time my graphic novel Varinka is finished.
