OK then it's not the GE.
Maybe your computer has trouble handling the map. If you get the "not responding" message again leave the pc alone for a few minutes and see if it just needs more time.
Sometimes it helps, if you open the GE first and open the map from there instead of trying to open the map.i3d with a double click.

You have to tell GE where to find the installed game, so it knows where to find the library objects etc. etc. It would usually pick this up automatically, it did for me even though I moved my Steam files onto my D: drive so I'd suspect that you've got a nonstandard setup.
