Pcsx2 crashes upon exit

[Ramadear]

Greetings everyone,

I have no idea how to close pcsx2 properly without it locking up my pc. I can close it in window mode by pressing ESC, another pcsx2 window pops up and I can hit exit. But if I hit the X in the window or if its in full screen mode I have no way to close it out without it freezing my pc up.

Any help would be appreciated.

Athlon64 5200+
2gb DDR800 ram
Geforce 6800gs sli
Creative X-Fi extreme music

I hope that info about my rig helps solve the problem a bit.

Thanks everyone!

Enable console and press X on the console window.That should do the trick

Even in full screen mode? I can't exit full screen unless pcsx2 locks up and I can't make it back to the desktop to alt+tab close the program.

Try this: when in fullscreen, press ESC (the game should hang). Then, press ALT+F4.

EDIT: oh and, btw, it doesn't crash. It's just that it doesn't return to desktop when you hit ESC, so it seems to be halt

That works! Thanks, I really appreciate it.

People shouldn't be pressing escape in the first place, you're meant to come out of fullscreen mode via ALT+ENTER.

I tried that, its the most obvious approach. But every time I did the emulator just locked up and I would have to restart.

if a application hangs u don't need to restart every time... just set under power options "if push power button" got to standby - if ur pc or an application seems to hang (not responding - ur not able to open the task manager and so on) press the power button - in nearly 95 % of all cases the pc switch to standby mode - press the power button again and u'll see the logon screen - the hanging application is minimized and ur able to open the task manager and end the app.

i do this because i'm hate to restart my pc

... just a hint - the solution 4 ur problem is written above
