Ipac4 issue?

Pages: (1/2) > >>

Lo_Wire:

I havew wired up only one player to my Ipac4, It worked the first time I booted up the PC, but now I cant get it to work at all, does it need all players wired to work?

Its wired using ps/2 m/m.

I also the led on ipac flashes twice and then stays on,
according to Ultimarc only 5+ times means anything on the ipac4.... http://www.ultimarc.com/ipac2.html (see table).

Thanks in advance for any help. ???

Bobulus:

According to that page, 2 flashes and then steady should be 'working okay'

PS/2 Interface detected: a second short flash
If switch test passed: LED stays lit

What happens if you open up notepad and hit buttons?

Did you change anything between the time it worked and now? (Installed a new copy of mame, changed bios settings, updated the ipac firmware, etc)

Lo_Wire:

Nothing, even in winipac nothing.

restart with keyboard plugged in, keyboard works fine.
then I unplug keyboard and plug in ipac ps/2, computer beeps (onboard mono speaker thing)
plug keyboard in to ipac, and all works fine.

After restart, keyboard and ipac dont work, but ipac led and keyboard number lock led are on normally.

Confused!

Bobulus:

If it works and then stops working after a reboot, that helps narrow it down.

We need to see if it's a bios issue or an OS issue.

Do you have some other OS you can boot off of, like a ubuntu live CD or something like that?

Lo_Wire:

I only have xp on my mame pc, I have a laptop using vista (which Im using now) but has no ps/2 input, how do I determine if it is a bios issue?
