You may be thinking the Y-Axis speed goes 0-100.  I'm pretty sure it goes 0-255, so 85 is actually fairly low.

You might try playing more with these settings and seeing if it helps.

I have the Betson/Imperial hooked up as a PS/2.

It works fine for Shuffleshot, Shuuz and World Class Bowling.

The thing that made it work for me and several others was to install the Microsoft Intellimouse driver and turn off acceleration.  It works perfectly now and I have the sensitivity set at about 20% in MAME.

drunkatuw:

Can I install the Microsoft Intellimouse driver for a USB trackball?  Right now it just shows up as an HID-complient mouse.

Edit:  I'm using a mini-pac for my interface just as a reminder.

ErikRuud:

I use an Itellimouse Trackball Explorer at work that hooks by USB, so it should work.

drunkatuw:

I tried to manually install the Intellimouse drivers and I get an error:
"The specified location does not contain information about your hardware"

Looks like a PS/2 mouse hack is looking better all the time.
