Need Help with Spinner and Trackball

[genesim]

I have searched the archives, but I admit that I don't really know how to search specifically for this problem.    I am getting tired and I don't seem to be able to get the answer at this time.

Plus I have never had this happen.

Spinner (Spintrak) only goes in Y direction(up/down)  Happs trackball only goes in X Direction(left/right).

I am running in Windows XP.   Is there an option that you can either make each totally independent of each other?   Or at the least they duplicate the movement?

Well I know it can, but I can't remember how.   Only thing I can figure is some mouse drivers that I installed mucked it up.   Any help is great appreciated.

USB or PS/2?
All the time, or just in MAME?

I had this happen and it ended up that I was trying to drive too much on the usb port they were connected to.

Once I got a good powered USB hub, everything started working fine.

No one is going to PS/2 and one is USB.   This one baffles me.    Still, can't hurt to at least try the USB port going through the PCI slots, that is how I had it before.

Figured it out!! 

Two problems.

The Spintrak had a jumper issue.   I lost it.    If it ever had one.   At any rate I put one on, and I guess it makes it a slave..or enables the other coordinate(x-axis instead of y).

Second problem..Happs trackball worked best in USB.   While the above seemed to fix the movement after plugging it into a PCI USB I got much better results.   

Both work fine now.

Oh. Good. Put 'solved' in the beginning of the header.
