Description
in 1.19.1:
- selecting load core > LRPS2 then clicking Start Core brings up the PS2 main menu.
- starting up the PCSX2 core with an empty iso file results in the core booting up the PS2 main menu.
in 1.20:
- selecting load core > LRPS2 then clicking Start Core results in only the audio of the PS2 main menu, the video defaults to a black screen but will repeat anything that was previously drawn on it, EG the quick menu if it was opened.
- starting up the PCSX2 core with an empty iso file results in an instant crash

Research direction
Reproduce both cases through Load Core > LRPS2 > Start Core and by starting the PCSX2 core with an empty ISO. Compare behavior between 1.19.1 and 1.20, focusing on the video output and crash; done means the PS2 main menu renders normally and the empty-ISO startup no longer crashes.
