Arcade: Installed Games Have Black Screen on Reboot

Summary

Installed Games Have Black Screen on Reboot
Street Fighter 3rd Strike and Red Earth are two examples of games that have an install before loading the game. These games work fine after the install screen however if the user attempts to reset the game then it will load up in to a black screen. The installation process does not alter the chd files, but instead uses SRAM.
To fix this when encountering a black screen after reboot delete the SRAM files which should be in your Bizhawk \Arcade\SaveRAM folder. Then the game can be reinstalled. Once the game loads up make a save state. Then to play again just load the save state.
