Hi all,

in my case, I finally found the solution to this problem.

On my computer the screen font size was set to larger than normal. Because of this the Maya menu options somehow weren't displayed at all.

I thought of this before but there were two independent ways of increasing the font size. I can't remember exactly, but I think one was the standard way via Windows system controls and another direct way via the video card. Windows' font control was set to "normal size" (as it was supposed to be), but the video card's setting was "enlarged". Once I reset both settings the problem disappeared.

cheers,
Christopher
