    Are you playing with the same game?
    It happens with some games as emulater can't run every rom or iso.

    Set your video plugin to fast & windows mode, this is a very basic setting

    Change video plugins ect, just play round a bit

    It's possible the res is just set out of range of your graphics card in full screen

    You can switch to Full-screen mode by pressing ALT+ENTER on your keyboard,
    or change the setting from the video configuration.

    Never heard of this issue before except for those trying to set the res too high

    You could for now untill this is figured...

    Use windowed mode but change the res on it to just under your desktop res, i.e. have it set to the largest Windows mode you can use
