Startup crash

[Eros]

Hey all,

I'm having this startup crash. When I double-click the EB icon, it starts up and a black screen appears (to load, duh). But then it suddenly crashes back to my desktop! This is really annoying.

I hope you guys could help me out!

I had the same problem the first time I installed eb 1.1... turns out i had a corrupt install

So I just have to reinl it probably?
Does it work with you now?

In your RTW folder, there is a batch file called validateinstall. It tests, if you're installation is corrupted.
