Game wont run since latest patch.

Since the new patch I cannot start the game.The moment I hit the button to play the game. My system freezes and I must reset my computer the hard way. I checked my firewall and made sure coh got full access to do anything it likes. But to no avail.

Well I ended up reinstalling the whole shebang. It seems to work now. Took me the whole evening but there you go.
