Zelony -

I just got the RF Topgun, and I am struggling to set it up.  Maybe you have some tips?

I have the driver installed and it shows up in the windows device manger.  I can calibrate fine as per the instructions.  But I don't get anything happening on the PC.  the mouse doesn't move (I do have a normal mouse on this PC already, btw) and inside mameplus at the game controls screen, when i try to change any function to a button on the gun nothing changes.  So it seems no data is being received by the pc.  In MamePlus I have enabled lightgun support and mouse support and multiple mice support.

Is there a good test program just to see the gun buttons working etc?

Are there any lights in your room which could interfere with the guns camera? Try to switch off the lights.

If this doesn|t work, then it should be a windows/driver problem. I suggest reinstalling the guns completely.
The mouse pointer doesn't move, but do the gun buttons in the topguns configuration utillity blink, when you press them? = or in other words are the buttons working as left and right mouse clicks in windows?

I literally had to repeat the calibration steps at least 6 times in a row.  Each time it would get a little mor accurate.  That being said, after the second attempt I was able to move the mouse around in Windows, although it was erratic. 

It seems that some times it stays in calibration mode.  Just keep repeating the steps in the Wikipedia site here at ArcadeControls http://wiki.arcadecontrols.com/wiki/LCDTopGun and you should get it.
