Inquisit 5 will interpret the values as percentages if no unit is given, i.e., instruction pages may be sized far larger than the actual screen, giving the appearance of a "blank screen." In your specific case, instead of <instruct> ... / windowsize = (1024,768) </instruct> specify <instruct> ... / windowsize = (1024px,768px) </instruct>
