pelican universal hack --- reset problem

[wakko]

i recently found this http://www.the-console-corner.com/pelican's_universal_arcade_stick.htm controller to hack and now i am getting reset issues. everytime i go into my cvs2 or anything it like constantly resets... sometimes the controller lights go on and off and im wondering what is going on? i checked like all the connections they seem to be fine... anyone know whats going on? is the board shorting? i can get it working sometimes for 20 secs and then it reboots again? feel free to help cuz im dumbfounded  

need anymore info please ask i'll be happy to answer

Sounds like the board is fried/defective.  

A defective Pelican stick? SHOCK!  

I'd try hacking a Universal Real Arcade instead. Since it uses arcade style parts it's a snap and they're not that much more expensive.

What he said.


I have the guts of 4 Pelican Real Arcades in my cabinet, and they use standard arcade parts inside, so there is very little "hack" involved.

i know theres very little hack but is there something i did wrong that would cause this issue? at first i thought it was a ground problem so i rewired it and it worked ! but tested it this morning and back to the same problem...

so u guys think its fried?

ok upon further testing i dunno if the board is messed up but if i hold on to the back button everything seems to work properly? is there a way to disable the back button all together? if there is please let me know
