We need a little bit more information than that I'm afraid.

What graphics card do you have?
What drivers are you using and are they the latest ones?
What display mode are you trying to use?

Did this problem appear just after you updated the card's drivers?

Hmmm, that's a point, did this problem appear after you installed DirectX 9.0?
