One of my friends had your exact some problem. He updated his video drivers and it fixed the problem. That doesnt always work though so, yah...

NO WONDER!

You're not in your games view! Go to View, and click the game thing.

lol jesus that was the problem.. i wasnt in the game window... it seemed that my settings in sapien were saved for that current window to be maximized so i couldent see any of the other views even if i did untick them and stuff so i had to find those little arrow things to resize the window and to find the real game view window.....

thanks man....

Wow, its a good thing that I looked for a topic already answering my question... I was about to start my own =o

And that was the exact same problem with mine... the Output window was up front and the Game window was at the back with nothing visible but the status bar...
Thanks =D
