ZD Encoder + Mala = controls won't register unless I replug USB - Now with Video

Pages: (1/8) > >>

I'm using a Dell Dimension 4600 a ZD Encoder Rematch and Mala. When I boot up the system, the ZDEncoder doesn't work in Mala. If I exit Mala and look at the windows control panel joystick, it lists the joystick as about eight straight lines - like this IIIIIIIII. If I unplug the USB and replug it, it lists it as a USB Game Pad and if I relaunch Mala it works.

What am I doing wrong?

Attached is a pic of the lines I was referring to

I booted directly into MALA and I get the joystick issue. If I boot directly into Windows, the gamepad looks fine in the control panel and works fine.

If I check the "Start Mala when windows starts" it doesn't work
If I boot into windows and then launch MALA, it works

If I put mala.exe in the startup group, it works. That's what I'm going to do to work around this issue.

Fat lot of help you guys were!  :lol
