It happened last night, Sharon (Friday) Far as I know I didn't do anything different than normal. I remember opening it, it was fine. I minimized and did something (can't remember what. But nothing out of the ordinary) Brought it back and it was like that. I too have seen it look something like this when looking for a stray material, but always cleared up. Again, reinstalling it should clear up anything like that. I would think it was a hardware problem if I had problems with my other stuff that I run with opengl. I don't get it. Something stuck way down deep in my Operating system maybe? Running windows 2000 pro. It sees Poser and says no way?
