Please update to 0.461a and see if it gets any better. Do you see your 'Image' on preview or it's just black screen? Do you see something like this: http://i.imgur.com/XE6YH.png or absolutely nothing, a black screen? Maybe try updating your DirectX and video card drivers.

Are you sure that you're proprly setting up your scenes? Have a look at this: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=402 Also, make sure your Windows is up to date by running Windows Update. Run Dxwebsetup to maxe sure[/u that you've got the latest DirectX version.

Are you running an SLI setup? It seems like you are. Can you try disabling SLI and then check if it works?

This seems as though it can happen on occasion with some mobile machines, not entirely sure why though.
