CP no longer working...
« on: January 24, 2011, 11:16:11 pm »
Recently got this MAME cab up & running. I fire it up tonight & the cp buttons & joysticks do not work.

I'm running Mala & Paradise Arcade Shop's USB controller. Kept getting Microsoft error messages for the controller has malfunctioned. I tried plugging into other slots on the USB card then directly into the PC then into the hub on the front. Won't work anywhere. Then I tried using another cable to run from the controller to the USB port. Still won't work.

I go into the controller tab in Mala & try to run the "check". Nothing is registering. Look further and the label it had when it worked is no longer there or available.

The only thing I can assume is the controller itself took a crap & I will need to ask PAS to RMA it.

Has anyone else had a problem like this?

Finally got this thing going & now I can't even use it.  :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

Has it ever worked or was it new?
It may be a bad controller, contact the seller.

It was working fine until I turned it on tonight. I didn't change anything since last use.
