Hey everyone, I'm sure this is a rookie question, but I got the control panel wired up last night and everything is working except the trackball and buttons. It lights up like it supposed to but nothing happens. I have this trackball - http://www.jammaboards.com/store/2-1-4-ps2-led-illuminating-pc-mame-arcade-trackball-led-trackball.html The green LED lights up but the mouse is not moving on the screen. It's connected through a PS2 port. It also has 3 wires (red, yellow, white) and a ground (black). I only need the left and right mouse clicks so which color wires would these be? I guessed the red and white wires. It also turns red when I press one of the connected buttons but still nothing happens on the screen. Any help? Thanks in advance! |

Enable Mouse 1 in your mame.ini file. Familiar with that? |

Thanks for the reply Hoopz. I'm not really familiar with that. I'm guessing I need to open up the mame.ini file in notepad and change the mouse 1 from a 0 to a 1 to enable it? Also, the trackball isn't moving the mouse arrow or left/right clicking in windows either? |

That will allow Mame to see it. For the second issue, does it move up and down but not left/right? |

Neither... it's as if the computer doesn't recognize it at all. I haven't tried restarting the computer yet with the trackball plugged into the PS2 port. I'll try that when I get home. |
