When I moved one or the other roller it worked fine. --- Quote from: ahofle on June 11, 2007, 01:23:32 pm ---For one thing, I would stop using MAME to diagnose the problem. If it's a hardware/driver issue you should see the problem easier in Windows. --- End quote --- The problem only occurs in MAME. --- Quote from: stuckpixel on June 11, 2007, 01:26:52 pm ---Maybe it's something with TinyXP that's fouling it up? I mean you've pretty much eliminated the hardware from being the problem at this point. Does this happen when you're in windows normally, or only in games? Could be a wacky USB issue or something too. --- End quote --- This is a PS\2 connection. |

Didn't you say that it works fine for a while then suddenly stops working? This statement: --- Quote ---The machine has to be rebooted multiple times to get it to work and then it only works for a short time before it starts to act up again. --- End quote --- Can you elaborate on this? Do you mean it works perfectly in MAME for a while, then suddenly 'acts up'? Does it ever act up in Windows? Does it ever work fine in MAME? Did you check your MAME analog and input settings? |

Look into the driver side of things. DOS needs a mouse driver to be run before any mouse devices may be used. Do you have a mouse driver set up in your Autoexec or Config.sys? If so, which one? Have you tried others? RandyT |

Well.. trackball trouble? A good question ..so, you know the answer already :( DOS: - You have a DOS driver for the TB/mouse in your autoexec.bat, YES?! Works in DOS ..for a while.. ? What version of DOS are you actually using? ? What are the machine specs? Memory? .. Memory all counted & conventional memory available for programs..? (type MEM at the DOS prompt..) ? Have you tried other (DOS) mouse drivers? ? IRQ conflicts? -> Printer port (usually irq 7) comes to mind; that was the root of all evil in the "Dos time". Shouldn't really affect mouses in any way (anyway)... Tiny XP: - Yeah, I've heard of that way to waste your time :) - Still, have you at least double checked your PS2 connectors..? - Again, running out of memory? Well, trackballs/mouse controllers, who knows: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=66155.0 Actually, I think that if you can't get it working with two or three different open source/whatever drivers it must be the motherboard - or the PS2 connector - that is faulty. No real help here I'm afraid. psycho. |
