OK...this started this week...everytime game ends my game locks...all i see is the last screen shot...for 30 seconds or 30 minutes...however I want to sit there...it's all i see...the last screenshot...i have to "end task" and restart game...what's up? help...

It's hard to say. Matt may know more, but I experience that alot too, both on my laptop and my desktop. I thinks it's a reload with the server, but whether it's the game server or our individual computer servers, I don't know. Sometimes it's slower than usual, and you are correct in that it seems it got stuck. Have you noticed anyone starting the next round on RM, even though your game screen shows the last screen shot?

Do you see the game map saying victory/defeat or the list of players and scores?

I have that sometimes when the match ends and it's showing the game stats while the next map is loading. It's ussually when I don't move my mouse around. It's the weirdest thing.

every game i'm playing hangs just before it ends...100% out of about 10 games games this morning...

since this began i've walked away a couple times for 20 minutes...come back and same screenshot on screen...hanging there...

I have no problem alt-tab'ing and doing anything else on my machine...

no...it seems to hang just before then...this morning on space map i heard the voice "that's one for the republic" just as i made victory kill...then it hung...

UPDATE TO THIS POST:
wow...moments ago...time ran out on death star...0:00 on the clock...game hangs...i did a shift-PrtSc cuz i was gonna show everybody what it looks like and that i'm not crazt...as soon as hit the PrtSc button it rolled!!...and the game ended normally...??? Will keep posted if this was fluke or not...but WOOHOO! (if it wasn't)...

UPDATE UPDATE:
seems was a fluke...just hung on mustafar as game ended...

i wonder if i'm getting credit for games played when the end (in fact, DON'T end) in that way...?

You definetly have a bug, but make sure you clean out old files, like in Temp Internet folder, history,etc. I assume you've been shutting down and restarting the computer to re-freshen your RAM too? Then, I'd seriously consider reloading the entire game to your computer. Make sure you get the patches that are required. I think there's the 1.1 patch for finding servers, but if anyone else can think of any, please post.

I SHALL NEVER RELOAD! THAT TAKES FOREVER! i am a pro at this as i have a son that likes to load every mod he can until the game blows up LOL

but i will clean out my temp files as you suggested

i don't shut down my pc...just the game...

i do disable-enable my adapter...get new ip address, etc.

here is an example...right as game ends on mustafar a moment ago... http://www.xfire.com/profile/boccaxfire/screenshots/?view#106415199

no need to disable your adapter.

open a cmd window and type: ipconfig/release

it will spit out a couple lines about no IP
then type: ipconfig/renew

viola- new IP

If I see this happening at the end of games with the screen/game is hanging there. I go into RM and then begin customing kicking players and usually I come across the player that has caused the issue (unknown to them) and once I kick said player the game restarts/next map loads and all is sorted.

Anyway that's how I have resolved the issue when I come across it.

Definetely restart your computer from time to time bocca. It's how you clear out the RAM for faster processing. sometimes a complete shutdown and restart isnt bad either. If you type 'msconfig' in the command window, you can check to see if there's any useless crap running in the background that isn't evident during normal computer use. Disable the useless crap, and restart to take effect.
