U-360s Not working on boot. Windows 7

<< < (2/2)

LeedsFan:
Hmmmm.... this could be a power issue again. Try a powered USB hub and see if that resolves the issue.

I don't want people to think I'm criricising the U360 for this, as this is the second recent thread I've said this now. They really are fantastic all round joysticks for cabinets. But it's so easy to try out a powered hub if you have one already (or borrow one) just to see if this resolves the issue. If not then it's head scratch time.

Why would it be a powered hub issue if they work fine once you program them ?

I have a powered hub currently ( its only got a 500ma wart on it tho ) . The 360s are plugged into the PC directly.

I can certainly plug them into the hub and see what happens.. its not a detection thing as Windows sees them perfectly it just doesn't use them..

I had the exact same issue on an Intel Atom mini-ITX board. Windows saw it but as asoon as Mala and Mame started there was nothing from the U360s. A powered hub cured it instantly. Why?! Don't ask me... it worked and I never looked back.

It costs nothing to try (assuming you don't go and buy one specially). If you still have problems then fair enough, it's thinking cap time.

I havent tried the powered hub as i rewired the entire CP last night due to my new artwork coming in .. There was a mix up with the original artwork so i had just wired everything up without the artwork in place.. but of course had to remove everything to put the new artwork in place.. but i had a thought.. Could i not just make a batch file that initilizes the sticks using the cli mode of Ultramap before going into mala
Am going to give that a shot this evening

scream1973:
Powered hub did nothing .. But my batch file worked absolutely perfect..

ultramap 4way.ucg
ultramap analog.ucg
exit

Flawlessly working on boot everytime now
