mine usually works fine, but every now and again buttons stop working, and the keyboard that i have plugged into it starts going crazy (all the lights start blinking and whatnot). anyone else have this prob?

That may have happened to me once, rebooting the computer fixed the problem...I just chalked it up to abuse as I leave my arcade on 24/7 and it gets used and abused a lot.  Haven't noticed on a regular basis tho and I've had my Xarcade for several months.  Call 'em...they have a lifetime warranty.

The only problem with mine is that it doesn't remember custom programs. Are they supposed to remember custom key settings when they are unplugged? Every time I move mine it loses the custom programing.

yup - might try a new keyboard with it.  

eightbit - according to the manual, they are supposed to retain settings when it's unplugged.  You might get on their web site and fill out a support request; their support is good if you catch 'em during business hours.
