happs analog stick pc version need help

[spidermonkey]

Whats up guys
Anybody have one of these hooked up and working with mame 32? I just purchased one but can't get it to work.I calabrated and tested it in the gaming controls menu and it looks to be working in all the directional tests but when I try to set it up in the mame 32 "input this game" menu, only two of the four directions will register.as a result when playing sinistar I can only make the ship move in the up and left directions.I don't understand why the mame input menu will only accept two directions. Maybe mame just won't support this stick.I know that they are a little shakey with the analog support. I'd rather have this stick on my control panel than in my closet. Especially after speuwing out $130.00 %#@&%?#!!! bucks for it. Any suggestions, much apprieciated.
