Hey Wowgoody! Glad to see you got on the forums!
As a note to anyone who comes by to help, I was working with him over on Steam, I had him update his VC++ redistributable packages and update his .NET. I had him turn off any mods since it seems even minor keyboard shortcut mods can cause crashes. I had him post his error log as well to see if anything popped up that I recognized from browsing the tech support forum. This was the only thing in the error log:
[gfx_dx9.cpp:2187]: GfxCreateTextureFromFile failed with error: Invalid data
Not anything that I recognized, but in case it's helpful to a mod, I thought I'd post it here. Hopefully these notes will speed up helping him, but I'm out of ideas on what might be causing it. I think a full clean install might be the next step, but I don't want to be the one to recommend that.

Is this some sort of joke i have been unable to play since the update and its been 3 days come on.
I have a strong feeling this belongs in CK 2 Tech Support forum rather than bug report. But to get there you have to register your CK2 in My Games section (top left corner normally, next to Forum).
Try a full clean reinstall:
If this is Steam: move any valued save games elsewhere and uninstall the game from within Steam. Then manually delete ALL the CK2 directories from under BOTH the Steam and MyDocuments folders. Now reinstall the game from Steam, and run the Verify just to make sure it all came down properly.
If this is GamersGate: Move valued save games elsewhere, and uninstall the game. Manually delete the CK2 directories from where GG put them and from MyDocuments. Reinstall the game (this time pick somewhere NOT under the system path c:\program files\ ), download 1.111 patch again and apply it.
