background doesn't display

I've just installed the new Maxwell 2 upgrade plugin in my 3ds max design 2010 (xp64). I'm following along with the tutorial videos from the Think website & using the sample max file that goes with them (getting_started_scene.max)
I can't get my physical sky, skydome, or IBE to display in the viewport background. I've tried tinkering with the background display settings in max, but nothing seems to have an effect on this.
Suggestions?
Thanks

If you are using XP, the dxmanager.ini is located here:

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Autodesk\3dsmax\2009 - 32bit\enu..... or similar depending on the version of max you are using.
