I had the samme problem. But I found a "fix" for it.
Open the program, then open Window menu, then Preferences, OpenGL,
then deselect hardware acceleration.
Hope it works for you, coz it worked for me.

Hi, I use a compaq notebook (don't have all the details as I'm
actually at work) with vista (not by choice). I can install sketch up
fine and use it fine the first time but the problem occurs when I
close down the programme and then reopen it and the main screen is
just blank. There's no perspective axises, no little man, nothing.
I've tried loading up previously saved items and there's nothing. I
try importing the current view from Google Earth and there's nothing.
You can see the tools and select the tools but you can't use the tools
(as there is not a work area - it's just white).
Can anybody help me with this issue?
