Title: Before I spend the money quick verification from the board
Post by: 31spoonerstreet on July 30, 2008, 11:04:36 pm

I currently have on a simple 1 player cp
1 Happ Super
7 buttons
Key Wiz

I am going to be adding
1 super
1  4-way
8 more buttons
U-trak 3" trackball
Spinner (not sure which yet either GGG or Ultramarc)
and building a full cab - finally

My question is adding the 2 USB devices (trackball and spinner) onto an existing PC with other USB devices such as an NES controller or maybe other game controller.  Any conflicts or pitfalls anyone has run into that I would know about.  The potential USB issues are the only problems I can see.

You are fine.   I might upgrade the happ super to an ultimate 360 from happ.  Comes highly recommended.

Just to help keep the whole wiring this clean, I suggest , for what it's worth, putting a USB hub inside the CP, and then only running a single USB cable to the PC. Elementary question, but worth mentioning.
