Have you tried working with Paradox tech support about this? I had lockup issues, and tech support told me that the game can have this problem if installed on a fragmented HD. I did a defrag, ran the install again and never had another problem. The game is worth the effort, let me tell you. Very much so.
Sachmo, I have to admit that I did not contact Paradox tech support about the problem with EU II. It does look like a good game, so you have convinced me to give it another try. Thanks. [/QB]Bu sure to reload the latest patch from http://www.paradoxplaza.com/downloads.asp
That also fixes some problems + increases the playability of the game.
Personally I rank EUII as the best single-player game ever.
