frequent crashes

[Alexander the Average]

I recommend trying to run EBII without any .exe modifications first, and see if that helps before asking for help here - It's not really necessary to play the game or the mod anyway.

If you insist on using it, you first need to confirm that M2TW runs normally with the LAA patch you're using. If it doesn't, then you've probably applied it incorrectly. Please also remember not to post any links regarding 4GB patch or any LAA patch or other .exe modifications here; I believe it's against the rules.

You also don't need to apply it to your shortcut - I doubt that would cause your crashes but it isn't necessary anyway.
