More than likely an issue with your video card. Make sure you meet the requirements and also make sure your video card drivers are up to date. I know exactly what you are talking about, I had the same problem. After I built my new PC for EQ2 it worked fine.

You need to have the CD in the drive otherwise you get the black screen. Took me a couple of times screaming at the monitor before I figured this out.

Don't ask me WHY it is necessary especially after installing to hard drive but it worked for me this way )).

After a cup of tea and watching the character screen come up after inserting the CD all was well.

Hope this works for you. Don't muck with your hardware yet!!!

cheers,
