When I try and do that it does not see the key presses on the buttong for the cabinet itself. It sees the presses on the keyboard when I do it but not my joystick controller card. The button I have programmed to "Esc" on my cabinet work but the flippers and launch do not. they are set to LShift, RShift and Enter within VP...iam sure i am missing something! EDIT: I have DLed Xpadder and configured my card as needed. But how do I get PBX to see this...do a "Run before?" EDIT 2 GOT it! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
