    Greetings,

    Head to the display tab and go to colors, there you can edit the color of the background, if it didn't work for you just enable the command in the view menu and type "color192", then you can go to display tab and change background color, or use "GFX_SetBackgroundColor(Black)"

    I hope my answer fixes your problem.

    Actually it appears that I needed to disable Open GL in User Preferences-Display. Microsoft Windows Remote Desktop does not allow GPU rendering by default.
