Game freezes at Menu

[DrunkGiant]

As the title says.

When I start the game it freezes at the 1st picture of EB. So I dont even get to the menu.

I did a fresh intall of RTW with 1.3 + 1.5 patched. I then installed EB.

Ive also run the um check program that makes sure I have all the right files and Im not missing any, which Ive done.

Anyways if anyone knows any solutions to this problem Id love it.

I know its not graphical or anything cause normal RTW works and I run way more demanding games.

i dont think it freezes, it probably looks like it froze but its just a long loading time, try waiting

Just relax, be patient. Wait up to thirty minutes, go doing something else. If it hasn't loaded by then, there's something wrong or your computer can't handle it.

It took me like 20 minutes to get through the first screen Atleast it makes me feel better, I thought I was the only one having this issue.
