In the lower left hand side of your shipyard "space" view, there are those controls to zoom in, rotate and such.
The lower left hand button on this control permits you to toggle on/off the hardpoints... click on it to see if it changes anything.

Please go to C:\Program Files\Stardock\Totalgaming\GalCiv2 (or wherever you installed the game at), open the debug.err file you find there in notepad, and copy/paste the contents into a post here. This will give us some technical information that can help troubleshoot your problem.
