You don't have anything added to the scene and it looks like you have turned off the grid in the view options.

If you open the Scene Setup it is always empty because nothing has been defined to work with. Either go into the “Starter Pack folder” at the top right and select an object or add a primitive object from the “Create” dropdown top center. If you want to extrude something you first have to define a custom layer (see screenshot).

the usual applies: Start by updating your graphics driver. As an OpenGL-based app, E3D is highly dependent on a correct configuration on that front.
