wondering if anyone has had this problem - none activation

I finally got through the activation, loaded the game. And when it is loading, in the bottom right corner a rainbow coloured box comes on and never goes away, so during the game i can't see anything in the bottom right hand corner. It looks like its some kind of pop up box, but because it is rainbow i don't see any boxes. Problem is i can't get rid of it, cos its not really a window as i can still click stuff behind it, like confirming contract offers and stuff. I have tried a reboot, tried playing it in windowed mode and even tried changing the resolution and the skin, all too no avail.

Anyone else had this problem? I don't see any mention of it on here

Not sure what that is but i was getting my key number pop up in the bottom right.

It could be that but gone crazy try shift+tab button not sure if this will work but give it a try anyway.
