I recently ran into a problem with my cocktail cabinet and I'm not sure of the solution (or the cause!).
I've had the cocktail running smoothly for over a year, but the other night I turned it on and suddenly the joystick and buttons didn't seem to be working at all. After verifying that the front-end menu and games were working properly with a keyboard, I assumed the problem was somewhere between the controls and the PC. The wiring all seemed fine, so I opened Notepad and moved the joystick around. Here's what showed up for the Player 1 joystick:
Up = v
Down = z
Left 2
Right = 5
The player 2 joystick and all of the other buttons were equally screwed up.
uh oh.
I'm not sure how this happened. The only thing I can think of is that a few days prior a freind's (unsupervised) 5 year-old turned the system on and was wailing away on the joystick and buttons. But could that really have changed all of the inputs? He wasn't even touching the Player 2 controls and those are screwed up, too. At the time there was no keyboard attached so I can't fathom how different inputs could have been mapped to "V" and "Z". It just seems so odd that all of the inputs have changed.
So, is there a way to "reset" the I-Pac back to factory settings? Or is this some other problem that I'm overlooking?
