How powerful a rig do you have? Since GWX has a lot more objects/textures/everything etc. (hence the long loading times), some CPUs/amounts of memory/graphic cards, cannot handle extremely high time compression using it (that's a lot of extra data being processed), especially if anywhere near land, convoys etc. Even though the same computer could handle stock just fine at that same time compression, GWX might be too much for it. If you are trying to run at time compression over 2000x, that might be causing the game to lock up. Try sticking to lower tc, like 1024x and below, and see if the problem goes away.

I believe that's one of the reasons the devs originally capped tc at 1024x in stock, even though the game was obviously capable of being run at higher tc, so fewer people would run into this problem. GWX just lowers the threshold at which this occurs.
