Don't make LOD terrain structural or detail. That only applies to brushes. Those are the last buttons on the tool bar. Maybe your resolution is too low?

now i have uninstalled radiant and reinstalled but i cannot get my terrain to remain on the other pc i am doing the same thing and it stays
thisis what i am doing
create a terrain then i goto LOD adn select create from brush then i hit "V" the points come up i manipulate then hit "V" again
adn the vertex's are gone and i lmb click on the blue terrain and select a texture i see the texture highlighted and when i hit make struct. it goes away this is how i was told todo if u do not hit make struct. then what do u do?

You shouldn't make terrain "structurable", if you want to apply a texture to a piece of lod just select the lod and click on the texture you want. Then the texture will be applied to the lod.
You can also have the desired texture selected when you draw up the brush that you are going to make a lod piece of, if you do that it will have that texture (you won't get the blue thing).
On regular brushes you should always have the common "caulk" texture selected when you draw them, after that you apply the desired texture only on those sides of the brush that will be visible to the player inside game.
To select a single side of a brush use shift+ctrl+left mouse button.
