This is a common problem. There are very likely more than i reason why this happens.

In my case...the program called 'Gator'...which remembers my passwords and other information was interfering with the loading of IG2...so, just go to your Windows Task Manager and shut down 1-Program at a time....as you keep trying to load the game until you find the offending program.

CNTRL & ALT & DELETE...open the PROCESS-Tab ...and shut down programs in here....be careful what you shut-down...as you can shut your computer down.
