Did you have a mod set to load on startup?

No, or if so then I dont know how I did, I'm not very tech savvy, and just play the game as is.

Do you get a Minidump error window? If not, what's the exact error?

It says Runtime c++ some of the time, and just Program Error some of the time

I had a similar problem and this is how I fixed it: if you try to un-install entrenchment with inpulse you get the erorr "There is a problem in XML (28,8)" or somthing like that but if you go into impulse and mygames right click on entrenchment go to the bottom of the list and press verify instalation it should say instalation is wrong and you need an update, right click it a few more times (you don't get the option to update it at first) after a few second it will let you download a very small update and that will fix it.

If impulse lets you un-install entrenchment then I would reccomend just re-installing but that solution above has worked for most people who crashed on launching.

Good Luck!!

Yeah that worked, and the game finally played all the way through.  Is there no icons for the new things yet?
