you're using XP , and under ctrl panel... the game ctrller...
you can see those pads, right ?? right click and go to properties and you can test the pads... right ??
so.. the buttons and digital stick works there ??..

if it works there... mame32 should pick it up...

maybe a dumb question... did you check the enable joystick input for mame32 ?? or maybe an option in dos mame ??

Thanks for the all the help.

Like go to the Game Controller control panel in the (under start, settings, control panel) and remove the currently installed driver then click add and pick one that is close to what you have minus the analog controls.

"generic driver"
I have not tried, i'll give it a shot but i don't see this working... windows has no problem detecting and registering the digital contols for the game pad. Its in games that only the analog work including Mame32.
But hey who knows... its worth a shot....

Does the digital d-pad show up in the winxp game controllers control panel as a hat switch on your system?  Most games won't let you control movement with a hatswitch, that's why it won't work...   the interact drivers for win98 allowed you to make the dpad appear as xy axis for proper useage. No such utility/driver exists for winxp - I know, both my brother and I bought this controller. Before we bought it we checked the interact website for winxp drivers - site said drivers coming soon! So we bought it. Months later still no WinXP drivers and the "Coming soon" message was removed. We each e-mailed Interact who basically told us we were SOL.  :(
