Thank you for the suggestions. I've tried both but no change in the loading behavior.
I've also tinkered with the settings.txt file as suggested in other threads:
- Tried changing Master Volume to -1;
- Set multisampling to 0;
- Set fullscreen to no;
- Set rendertrees to no.
I'll post the latest files below. I'll also attempt an uninstall/remove/reinstall/patch again, just in case.

OK, not much left to try except a full reinstall now you have the video driver and settings right. Make sure you manually delete the Rome directory before starting the install.
Thanks for the reply, but I still can't get it working. I have another computer that runs it fine but i was hoping to co-op with my brother. Thanks for the help though, I'll just have to wait until a patch or something.

Have you tried any other "graphics heavy" games? Do they run? Your system specs look fine though.
I run games like armed Assault and Supreme Commander on the computer regularly. I've never monitored how they fare in terms of system resources so I don't know how they compare to Rome. I'll try tinkering with Rome from time to time and see how I go.

supreme commander gobbles up most computers and is prob more intensive than Rome (at least running dual screens was tough on my home computer that has absolutely no problems with Rome), so its probably not overheating or anything like that then.
Have you tried running it in windowed mode or in your monitor's native mode?
I have a semi-old box that used to run EU3/Rome just fine, but after Vista died and I reinstalled both crashed right after initializing the map.
What allowed me to run the game was setting it to my monitor's native mode, or windowed mode. I have no idea why that worked and nothing else *shrug*
