I'd say you have no camera. Seems v4 demands you have at least one in there. Or, y'know, maybe the old ones aren't compatible with the new program? Anyway..

Try hitting View>Go To Coordinates, and enter something safe, like the origin.

Thx mate! even though what u have said waz not the solution, it sure led me to it. this is what i did. As u have said i navigated to 'view' with the 3d view selected. then i chose a coordinate - X/Y, Y/Z or X/Z, then i selected 3d textured view.

All you have to do is click on the little box of text at the top left hand corner of the camera view and a dropdown box will appear, then just select textured view.

Simple.

However, even though you have fixed your problem, you computer could do with upgrading, especially in the RAM department if you are serious about level design.
