Multi player freeze

I have had 3, perhaps 4 games freeze after I click end turn.

No matter where I click, nothing would happen but a sound prompt.

Then I have to control alt delete and do my turn over again.

Usually the sound stops first.

For some reason on this last game I had the same problem but hit the escape key.

The game started to up load.

Can you let us know which maps and your specs in case there is a pattern.

All of these are custom maps.

Here's the time line.

1.04 released.

Did not download for a few days.

Continued to get random freezes on MP games (when ending my turn) causing me to do control alt delete.

On the 4th occurrence of the freeze I hit the escape key and then the game started to upload!

Played a couple of more days and got two more freezes, so I hit the escape key.

Then I downloaded patch 1.04.

Never had a MP game freeze since then.

Saved a map in the editor after 1.04 and hosted a MP game.

BlownZ06 accepted however I could not play the MP game.

After two days I downloaded the 1940 DLC.

Tried to open up the MP game and it worked.

Surrendered and hosted a new game.

Now, Blown Z06 can not open up the game.

Hosted another game and another player can not open it after accepting the challenge.

Now, I have decided to play 1940 campaign.

I have had two CTD's yesterday.

Never had a CTD in a single player scenario or campaign before the 1.04 patch and DLC.

This is very disappointing.

I hope this screen shot shows the team that the editor is different in 1.04 and DLC 1940.
