Heads Up Toolbar

[sams]

Hello Eng Tips Readers,
I had "heads up tool bar" when I used SW Student version 2013 on my lap top.
Every thing worked fine then.
I changed to commercial version of 2013.
The "heads up tool bar" does not show up at all regardless the Headup Toolbar
button is checked on or off under view, toolbars selection pull down menu.
Can any one tell me what I am missing, I looked under options, system options
and did not find any reference to "Heads Up Menu toolbar"
My Laptop is HP Pavillion dv6 with AMD Radeon graphics card.
Thanks,
Sams

That could be caused by the Radeon card. They can be responsible for many varied graphics problems.
If it's not already enabled, try enabling the Use Software OpenGL option in the Options > System options > Performance section.

Updating the graphics driver may help, although sometimes older drivers work better. You may have to experiment.
