Sounds like a graphics issue. Make sure your graphics card fully supports OpenGL. That is one of the system requirements listed on the download page. If your computer has Intel graphics, this is probably your problem. They do not support OpenGL. You can search this forum and find many similar problems caused by Intel graphics. One other thing you can try. Set the following system variable. SDPIXELFORMAT=SOFTWARE (Google "setting environmental variables" if you do not know how to do this) This will bypass your graphics card driver software when you run Modeling PE. Or, you can disable hardware acceleration in your graphics settings.
