What download did you try?

For Windows you could try these builds (under 'general discussion'):
- sfan5's: http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php ... 637#p98637
- PilzAdam's: http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php ... 717#p65717
- Fess': http://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php ... 069#p99069

If one doesn't give you textures/works well, try another one. Good luck!

Hmm, weird. I would post a screenie of the menu, but I have no image sharing system ATM.
I know what the buttons do, I could tell you. But I'm not at my computer right now I can't remember how to connect to multiplayer.

There should be 4 tabs at the top, first is single player, second is multi, 3rd is advanced, 4th is settings, click on the second tab, click a server you want to join from the list, (can you see that text?) then int the two boxes, type in the top username and bottom password. If you cant see the text for servers, just find out what server you want to join, (I like Landrush and Rancons Skyblock) find the ip for the server, type it in the box next to the butto. At the bottom, then click the button. (connect) that is how you start a multiplayer game.

I too am having issues seeing text, but this only applies to creative_inventory, unified_inventory, mod_menu, and travelnet_menu. This issue began with the lua_menu, so it must not be completely stable yet, which must be why sfan5 and PilzAdam haven't been making too many builds lately. Indeed, things are slow in high summer.
