This seems to be a common problem. @sublime posted the solution which usually solves it.

Here in detail what you should try:

  • Close the game
  • Open the Config.wtf file in a text editor, it is located in your WoW folder: World of Warcraft 1121\WTF\Config.wtf
  • Check if there is any line starting with SET gxWindow
  • If you find this in the file, make sure it is set to "1" … SET gxWindow "1"
  • If you don’t have this line in your file just add it: SET gxWindow "1"
