I have been unable to complete Essless on my Shadow since the last patch. I go through the instance fine until the final cutscene where you complete the flashpoint.

Given I am farming darkside points, it's frustrating to be unable to complete it after spending the time running through it. There is no warning, just crashing at the exact same point at the final cutscene over and over.

Thanks for any help.

Well, I can say that this just happened to me on the Black Talon, First time in over a year Ive crashed to the desktop (other than a rollback etc) It happened right at the point where you are asked to travel back to the fleet or on to Dromand Kaas. I selected Kaas, and Bam, crashed to desktop. Reloaded though and came back on the fleet, but I had a reward waiting for me, so I was able to finish.

Hi guys,

This is a known issue that we are working to fix. In the meantime, a workaround is to Alt & tab to your desktop and wait for the sequence to finish.

Thanks for the reports and sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Edit - Soundcard drivers are always overlooked but people always update video drivers.

All drivers are up to date, btw.
