If no text is displayed in the question box during a GMetrix practice test, this can be caused by proxy issues. Try the following and restart the test and see if it resolved the issue:

1. Locate the GMetrix SMS shortcut on the desktop.

2. Right-click on the shortcut and select Properties.

3. In the Shortcut tab, place your cursor at the end of the Target field

4. Add the switch -PHP to the end of the target

a. The Target field should read: "C:\Program Files (x86)\GMetrix\GMetrixSms#\GMetrix.exe" -PHP

5. Click OK and then launch the client and try again.

**Sometimes you may also need the proxy details in the Gmetrix settings for this switch to work**
