stuck on the LEVITHAN

Hello to you all...

I have the following problem :
After getting 4 starmaps(Dantoine,Tattoine,Mannan and Kashyyyk/koryban-i tried both options) i get the movie of the EbonHawk getting cought by the Levithan.
Immediatly afterwards i get a blank screen with only the blue arrow sign in it.
After downsizing/upsizing the screen resolution i found myself on the EbonHawk without being able talking to no one of my crew, without anything to press/do AND WITHOUT ANY WAY OUT.
Sure, i can walk around the spaceship, choose party memebers but thats it....
I have no minimap(the small map at the upper left corner of the screen) and when i press M for map, i get a map different from the EbonHawk(i guess its the Levithan map).
How can i resume the game???
I have been trying the following without any success :
-playing Koriban instead of Kashyyyk.
-playing in minimal graphic settings(without movies/audio as well), just before taking off.
-deleting all files in :"currentgame" and "gameinprogress",
during gameplay.
-using virtual memory(usually i disable the virtual memory).
My game is 1.02 version(today i will patch it to 1.03).
my computer settings are :
P4-3GHZ
INTEL ROCKLAKE MOTHERBOARD
1024M RAM (USUALLY WITHOUT VIRTUAL MEMORY)
RADEON 9800PRO(WITH THE LAST CATALYST VERSION4.1 I THINK)
2X200 GIGA WD HARD DRIVE(7200 RPM, 8M CACHE)

THANKS FOR ANY COMMENT ON THAT!

Welcome to the board.
If heared of this glitch before.
I believe 1.02 should have fixed this. But you might want to try 1.03.

Let us know if it worked.

worked for me

HI I had same problem, managed to get round it.
Had a theory that the problem may have been caused by the latest software update, ie fix a bug create a bug.
So i reinstalled the game software, and DID NOT update latest version
I then went back to a saved version of the game just after I had killed Malek, just before reentering hangar.
This solved the issue.

However a slight point is nagging at me, and that is after returning to ebonhawk, there is a series of responses you have to make to the crew members, I altered these responses to what my natural response would be and it took me through a different set of possiblities, And now Im not sure whether it was this that got me through or running on an old version of the software.

hope this helps... good luck

Freaky bug...

After you get captured by the leviathan, there's supposed to be a bunch of dialog where you decide who stays on the Ebon Hawk and hides, so they can come rescue everybody else... I've found sometimes in the game, the dialog gets messed up, and can be fixed by right-clicking on the screen. Have you tried that?

I don't know what else to tell you, since you've already tried reinstalling the game. Have you stepped all of your video settings (ALL of them) down to the minimums? Have you tried updating your video card drivers, or possibly rolling them back to an earlier version? Have you tried/can you try a different graphics card (stay away from NVidia, the game HATES NVidia cards) on your system? When you reinstalled the game, did you uninstall it, then remove all traces from your hard drive and registry before trying a clean install? That could make a difference.

Hope this helps,

that is so strange... ive never heard of a bug like that...

i have had the blank screen tho. but what i did was listened for the farmiliar tink tink of my mouse going over the menu bar at the top. clicked on one then hit close and everything went back to normal.

but that only happens if i use cheats to warp to dantooine to become a jedi. then i warp back to the endar spire, play thru the game, then it goes blnk like that right after the escape pod crashes and you wake up in the hide out. but like i said, it only goes blank if i cheat. are you using cheats?

you should try to move your mouse around at the top and try clicking an item on your menu bar
