The "Apple Mach Daemon" service is shown as "machd.exe" in the process
list.  There  is  another  one  called "Apple Netname Server" which is
shown as "nmserver.exe". "Apple Netname Server" depends on "Apple Mach
Daemon"  to  run  so killing "Apple Mach Daemon" with the force option
"/y" should kill both.

If the "net stop" does not complete, you should first kill "machd.exe"
and  "nmserver.exe"  (with  the taskkill command on WinXP or something
similar on Win2k) and then stop the services with "net stop". Just add
the next two lines:

  taskkill /f /im machd.exe
  taskkill /f /im nmserver.exe

right before
  
  net stop apple_mach_daemon /y

and  see  if  that  helps.  You  have to stop the services even if the
processes are already killed or Windows will think that they are still
running and won't let you start them again.
