[RESOLVED] MessageBox completely blank?

[krmed]

Hi,

I'm just starting to look at C#, and in trying some samples, I have a strange problem - perhaps it's just this machine (I'll try it at home later).

I create a simple Windows Application and on the form I place one button.

In the event handler for the button, I simply put:

MessageBox.Show("Hello");

The message box pops up, but it is completely blank! Title bar is the correct color, background is the correct color, button is present (but no OK or any other text on the button), no text in the message box and no text in the title bar.

If I change it to

MessageBox.Show("Hello", "Test Dialog");

then the title bar will show "Test Dialog" properly.

Any clues?

(Windows XP, SP1, all critical updates).

Thanks.
