Can't preview composition

Question

Hi,Hoping someone can help me. I've downloaded After Effects (used it before) and opened a file someone sent me. For some reason I can't preview the composition. It looks like the attached. I've tried everything that's been suggested online and nothing is working. Does anyone know what the problem might be?Thanks in advance

That is never going to work. You are not meeting the minimum requirements for screen resolution and that most definitely messes up anything related to hardware accelerated drawing and rendering. You can of course try to switch to software-only rendering, but given how tiny your screenshot is, it is questionable whether you could even reach those options with the poreferences panels not being drawn fully. Sorry, but this will likely never work until you work on a computer with more screen real estate.
