Hi,
I just downloaded it for testing, and it's not going well for me.
When I start Light Table I only get an empty black window with borders, title and menu bar, everything else is a big black rectangle. I can imagine there is some content, because I can get contextual menus, cursor changes, and tool-tips appears in the window when I hover the mouse. The menus seems functional.
Otherwise I can not add more information: The AppData/local/LightTable/log/ contains an empty window0.log file
The only thing I can do (because it displays something), is opening the file selector. Ah, I also can use it as a screen saver when I switch to full screen... Not so bad  ;-)

I searched this group for a lot of combination of windows/7/seven/black/window/empty keywords without any luck.
So, in case, anyone here with the same problem (and a solution)?
Thx for any help.

In case someone has the same issue. Solved by upgrading the graphics drivers (Intel's HD 3000)... Just be sure to get the good one when your laptop has 2 graphic cards (read: don't trust the stickers)....
Bye.
