      I noticed that due to OPenGL limitations of the intel graphics adapter like GMA 3150 the selection window in sketchup 8 is not visible.
      Many notebooks have such graphics adapter and although Sketchup is not designed to run on such system, i read many comments about hardware limitation of the 3150 (it does not support Open GL 1.5 only 1.4)

      However , it has little to do with this, it is just a memory limitatation.
      A simple solution: turn down your windows screen colour settings from 32 bit to 16 bit and that's it. πŸ˜‰
      So you had use hardware acceleration with sketchup, just reduce the colour bit setting in windows
