PacDrive + Xbox360? possible?

Ok, I just re-read his post, so let me make sure I have this straight:
you have MAME set up plus an Xbox360 in your bartop? A PC and an XBOX?

Maybe you could rig up a switch to change from the pac-drive to a constant power source. Hmm, but everything isn't daisy chained due to the way the pac-drive sends power to each light. The only thing I can think of is to leave the computer running while you're playing Xbox360.

Sorry for not being clear on this, but yeah, I've got a laptop running Mame + MaLa in my bartop. The pac-drive will be programmed via MaLa, so everything will flash'n stuff.

Well cheers for your help, maybe I'll really leave teh laptop on when playing xbox & simply use a setting where every LED is lit all the time.

IMPORTANT NOTE for people who hacked pads for their arcade controls and used more than one pad for multi-system compatibility: it is very important that only one pcb (from the pads you hacked) is powered on/ plugged in at the same time, or else, from what I've read, it's entirely possible they will be destroyed! Take extra care that only one of the hacked pads is plugged in at the same time!
