It could be the same issue that happens with EM4 for a lot of people.

 

Only thing I could recommend is to check to see if your drivers are up to date.

 

Someone else may know the solution, but I have this problem on my old PC.

 

Sorry for my lack of knowledge of EM 12,13, and 14.  :(

 

EDIT: Looked into it, could be the Firewall if you have it enabled. Try disabling and running, it may work.

Does it do the same thing for Emergency 4 (2012 I suppose)?

Logfiles help to figure out what is causing your issues, it could be that your driver for your video card is incompatible with it, could be directx issues, the list goes on and on
