I get the same problem with version 30225 and 26329. I'm going to try other versions to see if I will have the same problem with them.

Same problem with versions 25291, 21749, and 21309.

The only other addons I have are KLHThreatMeter and DamageMeters.
I'm running WoW on a dell M65 laptop with 2.33 Ghz dual core CPU. My NVidia QuadroFX 350M does a great job rendering WoW, but is meant more for business workstations than games.

I did some looking around in the LUA files and I created a hack/fix for this problem.

Disclaimer: I don't know anything about the inner-workings of the Ace Library or Dewdrop and I have no affiliation with the creator. This is just a hack that I have created to make the problem go away. It works for me and hopefully it will be useful to somebody else until the problem is fixed by the developer.

1. Go to the following directory inside WoW: "Interface\AddOns\Cartographer\Libs\Dewdrop-2.0".
2. Make a backup copy of the file "Dewdrop-2.0.lua" before making any changes to the file.
3. Open "Dewdrop-2.0.lua" with a text editor.
4. Go to Line 671 and type "--" at the beginning of the following lines to comment them out. These lines will now be ignored by the WoW LUA interpreter. The result should look like this:

-- local fullscreenFrame = GetFullScreenFrame()
local l = levels[level]
local strata, framelevel = l:GetFrameStrata(), l:GetFrameLevel()
-- if fullscreenFrame then
-- l:SetParent(fullscreenFrame)
-- else
l:SetParent(UIParent)
-- end

5. Save the file (you made a backup copy, right?) and close it.
6. Run WoW and try it out.

In my experience this allowed the menus to work on my computer. It did not create any additional problems that I've noticed.

I hope this helps, Ratu.
