Problem No HUD. Orbiter 2024

Can't reproduce it here, is your graphic card driver properly installed and configured? Any errors in Orbiter.log?
 
Does running in full-screen vs windows vs full-screen window make a difference?

That is 0x8876086C in hex, or D3DERR_INVALIDCALL.

Can you check on which GPU Orbiter is running?
 
Are you launching Orbiter.exe or Orbiter_NG.exe?

You'll want Orbiter_NG.exe. You are running the DX7 graphics, which is probably the source of most of the issues.
 
How do I do that?

First, its the the 3D device, not the 3D engine (which "only" does define what the 3D device should render). Next, usually you set this in the system control panel for the GPU. Sadly I only know NVidia, so I can't tell you what you must do on ATI. Maybe somebody else knows the process. Make sure Orbiter gets the good GPU, not the integrated GPU of the CPU.
 
Maybe just "[CTRL]+[H] Toggle HUD display on/off" was done?
