Completely new to emulators, Black screen

[MFDayBreak]

Hello forum, I just installed pcsx2 after reading the basic guide and am trying to run kingdom hearts, I am getting a black screen with absolutely nothing showing. Sound works fine and my controller pad is set up properly (I can hear the menu sounds when i move the d-pad). Can someone help me fix this?

Update directx

[Bositman]

Configure the GSdx plugin and make sure renderer is set to DX9/10/11 (whatever your system supports) hardware and not null
