That would be the splash screen, probably.  The warning is for not finding
the splash screen image.  You can apply the patch below to remove the
warning, but I don't think it'll change other matters.

Does nothing more happen after the window opens, or does it crash?

It'd be easier for us all if you were.  The list is fairly quiet right now.
