Hi Rob,

thank you for your help! - user directory is the Preferences - yes?
I renamed the H11 Prefs to H11_old in user/Libraries/Preferences/Houdini…

Opened simple scene and got 2 MPlay dialog boxes - all black, no image.
It is excellent that I can render to file, but M Play is not working out.

out of frustration I downloaded apprentice onto my wife's imac, 2.8 ghz, 10.5.8 and rendered the simple scene with M Play and flipbook. It was a beautiful thing.

I am going to look into updating the graphics driver on the laptop.
it goes without saying, any and all suggestions are welcome. And thank you for your help!
