    update your graphics drivers, if that doesnt help then test your ram.

    Update your graphic drivers ?
    Just check the official site for your graphic driver, or you can search for it.

    You need to know the brand of your Graphic Drivers first.

    I read in another forums that this might be the problem with the OS that you're using.
    Maybe you need to use the Compatibility mode.

    I have Windows 7 and if I play GTA San Andreas without the Compatibility for Windows 98 it only shows Black Screen, that might be the same case with you.
