Using standard Emacs, not EmacsW32, and doing
emacs -Q -fn "Lucida Console-11"
I get an 80x38 frame. Is that (38 lines) too large for your monitor?

Out of curiosity, do you have any Emacs.Geometry setting on the
registry? (In HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\GNU\Emacs or somesuch.)

It would be useful to know which version of Emacs, whether the bug
happens with -Q (so no registry, site-local or user-local settings),
and first and foremost if you see the bug with standard Emacs (you can
download a recent binary build for Windows from
http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/
