Game getting stuck while processing turn - no PBEM

After roughly around every 10-15 turns the game is getting stuck while the small turn-processing window is opened (the one which appears after you click "End turn") and the ai is working on something.

Have you tried waiting for longer periods of time?
Some of the older systems need more time.

If you're playing large maps on slow/old computers with lots of AI opponents where independent provinces are set for 1 or 2... then it could definitely slow down around turn_12.

Also before you play the game try turning off other applications running in the background such as your anti-virus because if your anti-virus is scanning one of the game files while processing the turn it could easily corrupt the game file.

Also you could check your Windows application/system log... any errors popping up during these hangs/crashes?
