EB Freeze at start up - Need help

[Humanman]

Greetings!

So I just downloaded EB for the first time tonight I made sure to follow the steps carefully, making sure I have a clean install of RTW patched to 1.5 and all of that. So everything goes smoothly until I try running EB, it will open up and show me the first screen and just stay there until I Alt Tab and manually close it. It will give me a error report message telling me I closed a non-responsive program. So I'm not exactly sure what I did wrong in the installation process I've followed installation guide on these forums even and nothing seemed to fix it yet.

Has anyone ever seen this problem before? Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Edit: Apparently I wasn't waiting long enough at the first screen where it says "Europa Barbarorum" It took a surprisingly long time though. Anyway, looking forward to trying out the mod. Thanks anyway.
