How can you exit a pc game in hyperspin?  When the esc button is pressed, it does not exit my pc game.  I have to go to the main game menu and select exit.

Hyperspin is just a fancy menu system that launches or runs the applications set up in it. Say MAME and other emulators. But if you run something other than Mame (Which is setup to exit with Escape for example) you need to use the program's menus to exit. Other emulators can be setup to exit in the same way as Mame but with PC games it isn't possible. Technically it would be possible but it is very difficult to impliment.

Thanks for the info.  No wonder I cannot exit from the game quickly with the esc button.  All the other emulators can do it easily.
