Default Black Screen?

So i just installed EQemu today off of an SoF download. I was able to log into other servers and decided to try Project 1999. I downloaded the UI and the spell file and attempted to log into the world. I got a black screen and was only able to see the arrow. I changed the comparability of the icon to Windows XP (i am running 7 atm). All my video drivers are up to date.. How can i fix this??

My theory is that you were instantly blinded. Thoughts?

Edit your eqclient.ini file and set your game resolution to the same your desktop resolution is running at.

I've had some sucess when this happens, switching in and out of full screen mode, you can accomplish this by holding ALT and pressing ENTER.
