Campaign won't load.

[Captain Jin]

Ok, so upon reading some of the FAQs and other questions, most people's problems when they load a new campaign is the game crashing, or they get a CTD or whatever.

Well I just installed EB 1.1 and 1.2 on a clean version of RTW Gold 1.5. I've played this mod before about eight months ago on an older lap top, I bought a new desktop and put it on here and I start up the menu just fine.

I understand it's intensive on the RAM, but I have 4 gigs of ram. It takes roughly a minute or so for the main menu to load, but then I try and start a campaign. I pick Romani then hit start, the cursor freezes in place but the music continues to play. The music will play for a couple minutes then it stops, and the game just sits there with the campaign menu up. I realized it might take some time, but I went to sleep for three hours and woke up and it was still there. I uninstalled and re-installed everything and I still get the same problem.

I don't understand this, because I did a custom battle and the game loaded fine, so I'm quite confused and if anyone could help I'd very much appreciate it.

Anyoooooone? Please. I've reinstalled three times and even tried doing it without 1.2 and just using 1.1. Same problem EVERY time, doesn't matter what faction I try. I'm going crazy here.

It does this every time?
I've never heard of that happening.

Are all of your drivers up to date? Sometimes they aren't fully backwards compatible with old sofwared on their release.

I got some help at the EB forums on the guild from Bovi. Thankfully. Thanks for the help!
