IPAC keys freaked out and now no longer work - looking for advice
sirzooass:
Aha! I just went in to test mode on my other computer and the "1 left = left entr" that displays in Notepad when I push the joystick left is exactly the sort of messaging I was seeing when this problem started. I'm not sure how I managed to accidentaly hit ctrl-alt-p but I suppose it's possible. So reset it to MAME defaults and exited properly.
Unfortunately, I hooked it back up to my MAME computer and it was still hosed. But luckily I had a restore point from a month ago, used System Restore and I'm back up and running again. I should have know all along to blame Microsoft, not my IPAC! Something must have gotten corrupted.
Thanks guys for your time and insight! :)
