Major Problem after installing 1.09

[Lord Finnish]

I got this major problem. I recently installed EU2 1.9, ok. But my game god damnit crashes wehn i play it like 5 minutes. Always. Now i installed the vanilla back, and tried playing Japanese, but the soldiers are coloured like damn rainbows. Zillion colours they have. Boohoo... Can anyone help me?

Lord Finnish, you say you just installed 1.09 and then installed vanilla back; does that mean you were playing with some modifications installed before 1.09?

I suggest you uninstall any mods you have installed, then uninstall EU2 completely - copy any valued save games elsewhere first. Defrag your hard disk then install EU2 and 1.09 immediately (rename the AVI directory afterwards). Confirm it now runs OK.

Then and only then reinstall any mods you want to play; it's highly recommended to apply them to a different installation of EU2 (there are threads in the mods forum on how to do that).
