Can anyone help? Apparently I'm an idiot

Found my problem. 

We'd recently done some work on the cabinet, mainly adding the marquee.  In order to make room to get in and tighten everything up,  I had to remove the Control Panel, which meant all the wires had to be removed.

When I rehooked everything, I found a wire I thought was my USB cable from the IPAC and hooked it back in.  Little did I realize that I had actually hooked up an old USB joystick instead, AS WELL AS the IPAC.   The USB Joystick was buried under a couple of paint bottles, and they apparently were pressing down on the stick just enough to cause it to move - either that or GameEx didn't know what to do with the two joysticks plugged in to different USB ports!

At any rate, all is right with the world again and I can proceed with fixing up my front end.  Thanks for the tip - I might have never thought to check those connections if you hadn't mentioned a stray signal!  :)

I was just going to suggest you check for that joystick!

Glad you got it working!
