This is somewhat gaming related but it's dealing with hardware so I posted here. My cdrom spins down much too quickly (less than 10 seconds). So when I play a game (for example using epxse emulator) each time it needs to access the cd the game hicups as the drive spins back up again. With some games this gets really annoying. And I've tried with a cd image and the skipping is gone so it's definately a spin down issue and not sound card related or something.
So is there any way/utilty to keep the cdrom active while playing a game?
