3ds max problem!

[Fingolfin]

I just reinstalled my 3ds max application, and suddenly, i can't see my textures when i am to wrap them!
I am on a new computer, so i don't know wether it has something to do with drivers or whatever, i have never seen it in work so to say.

The texture thumbnail shows up in the material editor and such, but when i open the UV window, it is just black.
How am i supose to texture when i can't see what i am doing!?

Please, someone help me with this.

so whats your problem?
is it the uv map editor or the viewport that doesnt show the material?

u did check the "show material in viewport" button?

I can see it in the viewport, but not in the UV window. It is all just black.
I noticed though that it appears to work on some other models, so i will check it out and see if it solved itself.

i think i know whats going on, though:
i'm doing this out of my head, please search a little for yourself, my advice might not be 100%...

there is a button at the bottom right corner of the unwrap editor...
i guess its labeled "more" or "options" or anything...
click it and the menubar should grow, revealing a few more options to choose...
there you need to change the color value (or its named a little different, i'M sorry, no max open)

tell me if it worked! if it didnt i'll fire it up and find it for u!
