Hi,
I'm relatively good at programming basics, but this problem is annoying me. I can't seem to execute the box tutorial source code, the only thing that happens is I get a black screen. I've tried manually syncing the display but no joy. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thankyou in advance

*For every problem you come across you gain something from correcting it, I hope.

Is there a sync command in the code?

cause both work fine for me, might be your graphics card driver or dx if neither one works. I'm guessing by box your talking about the cube tutorial

I had a simlar problem, out of curiousity try what I did, I waited, strange I know, but I think it is something to do with the first time usage, it must set things up...

I did exactly the same, I thought I was coding something wrong, or I had a duff version of software, or the V5.2 update had done something, but it was just a time factor, now when I type some source, it compiles quicker...
