This is probably a graphics card issue.  What is the graphics 
card you are using?

Try the following:

- do the volume rendering
- bring up the properties for the Volume Rendering control
(Edit->Properties menu of the control).
- Uncheck the Use Texture 3D property and click the OK button.

Does that make your volume rendering appear?
