Hey guys. I'm having a problem.

I'm setting up a number of emulators through my media centre. Each game entry on my media centre runs a batch file which does the following.

-runs xpadder (to bind a gamepad button to exit the emulator)
-runs emulator with specified game and waits until process closes
-closes xpadder

This has worked with other emulators I've set up, but I'm having a problem with PCSX2. The game will close but the process won't quit unless I manually close it in task manager. Since the process doesn't close my batch script won't progress and it just sits there.

I'm running PCSX2 with --nogui if that matters at all. I've googled the problem and I see a number of people with the same issue but I haven't found a resolution. Is there a fix?

Thanks.

Solution found. Posting in case any other poor google souls find it.
Found a program called SuperF4
http://code.google.com/p/superf4/
It enables ctrl+alt+f4 which, instead of a polite "please, mr.windows, terminate this process if it's not too much trouble" of an alt+f4, it says "TERMINATE THIS SH** NOW BEFORE I BIT** SLAP YOU!"

Tested it. Works great.
