Why suddenly a black world view??

What card and what driver version?

I've found that for SH4 no driver above version 10.9 works very well with at least the 5970...

It *may* have to with your AA-mode. MSAA is known to cause problems, so try AMSA or SSAA. Is A.I disabled? Not good!
Try a CCC reset as click on Defaults...

Or do as I did. Crash the system

and make a restore!!

Still don't understand what happened back then, but it's been working fine ever since...

Thanks, Jan. My drivers are the newest, my card is a 5970. The SH4 (TMO RSRDC and FOTRS), works fine with full options in CCC. I´ll make several test with the CCC alternatives; the problem is only in ME.

Best regards.

So...

Did you get it solved?
And how?

Yes...Only I desactivated the Desktop composition in the properties of the sh4 editor exe...No black map...

I use W7 with all the candy eye stuff of the OS, normally. For the ME, I marked and disabled the desktop composition.

Hours of testing for that

Best regards.

I will never, ever be able to understand computers!

Our systems are almost identically, but I can't run drivers above 10.9 without hydrophone issues in SH4 - you can.
I can run ME any time with any driver without doing anything - you can't.

But thank you for the update!

I'm glad I came across this thread, I've just discovered the problem with the ME being all black when trying to start a new mission. Disabling the desktop composition in the ME.exe has worked for me. I'm able to get on with making the mission I've been wanting to work on.

Thanks guys.

Yes, that is the solution I found, but I haven´t any reasonable explication for that...
