im running laptop windows 7 / 64 bit , Maple 15 /64 bit , 3gb of ram.

might be a problem in visual libraries , i have same problem in maple 14

when i open maple i can type letters but when i start to type some operational command for example + or - or multiply everything i typed goes away and i cant see characters from the start

I don't think the problem is with Maple

I've never seen that in Maple before.

I have seen that somewhere else, where the fonts weren't available and all that was displayed were square boxes ... I think it might have been in google translator when I was copying some translated language into word but I didn't have the correct fonts or something like that.

This appears to be somewhat similar, but I can't explain why when you execute a command, things disappear. Did you happen to skip any install steps? Had to ask, but I'm not sure if there are steps to skip in Maple 15.

Checking google "characters appear as square boxes" brings me here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/159418 - Characters appear as square boxes in printed document in Word 97 which suggests extended characters (greek symbols) is using a driver that does not support unicode characters. ...

I'm not sure if that was any help. Perhaps someone else has a better idea of what's going on.

try updating your video driver

I had the exact same symptoms you describe, running Windows XP x64 on an HP Z800 desktop. I found this posting via Google.

I found my nvidia driver was several versions out-of-date. When I updated, Maple 15 worked fine now.
