BC2 process not ending after game?

[imaheadcase]

I've had this problem since i've got the game. The process still stays running when i exit game. It happens all the time. Anyone have a clue as to why this is happening?

After the last patch it stopped for like a week, now it does it every gaming session. Very annoying, brother says he gets it every now and then as well.

My BC2 does the same. Every time I finish playing, I need to manually end the game process in task manager. Seems like this is a common issue if you google it. I haven't found a solutions for it.

Same here. I finish playing, come back an hour later and find that Steam still says I'm playing.

Similar problem here. I click Exit Game and then press yes to the prompt and it just sits there unresponsive. I have to kill the process through the task manager.

Someone mentioned in game that its related to punkbuster still using the game process. But I've never read anything about it online hinting that.

I don't think it was mentioned in the known issues for game to :/

Update:

Found solution to problem! Turns out certain nvidia drivers play havoc with bc2 (not performance just quitting game).

Upgrade to the 197.45 and all is back to normal.
the other 197.xx versions below that made it not close process.
