extended map editor screen crash

[carp]

Hello, men. I finally purchased WinSPMBT and WinSPWW2. I am getting a multi-colored screen crash every time I open the extended editor for both games. I can make out the buttons but can't read them. Color of crash is essentially blue. I don't speak computers so I need it as simple as can be. I am running Windows7 and the game has installed outside of program files as needed. The game runs fine. The editor is the issue.
