Might be that you have same problem as I had few months ago...
In that case you need to change something on the moray exe file.
here is an excerpt from another thread...

Okay, I did that thing and got the same results as you.
I got Pov 3.5 working by going into the icon's properties and ticking
the disable visual themes box in the compatibility tab. It might be
better to do it to pvengine.exe
Do the same for Moray also set the compatibility to Win XP SP 3
I am sure that this will help but if not post again

Hopes this is of any help...
