Only Seeing Black SHapes

[Pier588]

I'm am a first time user, why is everything is black outlines on my screen?

It's hard to tell without any more information about your computer and the way you have set up your viewer.  Try going to Preferences (CTRL + P) and one at a time .....

(1) UNcheck HardwareSettings >> Enable OpenGL Vertex BufferObjects (VBO)

(2) UNcheck Shadows

(3) UNcheck Basic shaders.

If none of those work, come back and add to your question by clicking on the Options link in its upper right corner and selecting EDIT.  Please do NOT start a new thread.
