    I am having a rather strange problem.
    Like everyone else, I do not want my DVD to spin @ 18x.

    Problem is:
    - The internal drive speed setting does not work (unresponsive DVD playback)
    - With Nero DriveSpeed started: same result as above

    Solution:
    - Starting Nero Drivespeed
    - Killing Drivespeed process
    - Playback is OK.


    So I have choosen to startup DriveSpeed wit windows, and made this batch file:

    Code:
    PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 5000 >NUL
    taskkill /f /im DriveS*.exe
    taskkill /f /im DriveSpeed.exe
    Line 1 is giving NeroDrivespeed 5 sec. to start before it terminates it.
    2. line is to avoid it to be started as "Drives~1.exe" or simular.

    Question is, can I use wildcard (*) like this?
    Are there batter ways to terminate this process (PID value is never the same, I believe)
    :D
