Hello- I'm guessing that this is a graphics card issue because I can display the volume correctly on my system using both OpenGL and Direct-X. The information you sent indicates that you are using Direct-X (you can see this in the Help->About menu under the System tab). The default renderer is OpenGL. If you did not modify the runIDV.bat script to change to use Direct-X, then the system autodetected that your graphics card does not support OpenGL and switched to Direct-X. However, it appears that even Direct-X is not working for you. Please try updating the driver for your graphics card to see if the clears up the problem. Don Murray > Full Name: Ing.
