Optifine and the normal version works great. It's just forge that's the issue.
When i opened the Minecraft Launcher 1.6.59 and selected forge i clicked on "Edit Profile"
Check marked "Resolution" 1920x1080 i was able to get the Menu to show but if i resize it will go black. Just to get it to show i had to restart minecraft 4 times to get lucky. I took a quick video to show you. Hope this helps.
