Game EX Random background switching...

Ok, so I've been a happy Game EX user for about 6 months! It's simply a beautiful front-end, with easy setup, and supports a massive amount of content... I simply can't say enough great things about it! All my emulators are working flawlessly with no problems at all. With that said, the problem I'm having is that sometimes when I select a system from the emulator list... let's say SNES, the background will sometimes revert back to a default background, rather then using the custom one included in the theme I'm currently using. I then have to exit out of the game list and return to the emulator list, then re-enter the game list and the correct background shows up. I'm using Crylen's Aeon Inspiriat theme, but this happens with any theme I use that uses different backs for each system/emulator... So I'm not sure it's a problem with the theme or something not right with my setup??

I'm running Game EX on a Windows 7 Prox64 Intel i5 system. I've updated my DirectX and video drivers with no luck on fixing the issue. I'm using the stock Intel GFX currently, and as I said, my emulators and games work fine. Also, sometimes upon starting Game EX, it will crash and report a DirectX error, but this is very rare... any idea's?
