I think i'll give up. I've tried both suggested ideas and still can't get the stick to map, it's like it's not detected. Thanks anyway though.

Ah! this must be where I'm going wrong, pardon my ignorance, but how would I configure this? Also thanks for persevering with me so far!

Well for some reason the buttons work fine, but the stick itself is not recognised,because it recognises it as POV? or something like that. I've attatched the gameex.ini file, Thanks. gameex.txt

It is yes! I have a sneaky suspicion it may have something to do with my dual monitor display (which incidentally I also can't get working properly now I've changed to vista) I should also add, the buttons on the stick work fine (they are not set up in xpadder, I assume Game Ex itself just recognises these) Oddly the stick has worked on rare occasion in Game Ex but then If I quit a game and let it go back to Game ex menu, it won't work again. Frustrating is not he word! So it seems to work sporadically and I can't seem to recreate when it works fine. As a final note, when the stick (on rare occasion) works with game ex, there are no menu movement sounds, I'm not sure if this is relevant but I thought i'd include it anyway.

Hi it did not help I am afraid, I've attatched the log file, but pardon my stupidity, I'm not sure which config file to attach? I think it might not be a problem with Gameex itself, perhaps something else causing the issue, Vista perhaps? Also I've rtied Joy2Key as well, but it's not recognised either. log.txt

Hi guys, I have a slight problem with Game ex and Xpadder. Basically I have just bought a new PC and transferred everything over from my old one. On the old one, I had my SFIV TE stick set up with Xpadder which worked fine. However now I am using the new PC and xpadder, I just cannot use the stick to navigate the menus. It seems to work fine once I actually get into games but it is not recognised in Game Ex. the movements of the stick are recognised by xpadder itself, but this does not seem to be picked up at all by Game EX. I'm pretty sure my config is the same as it was on the old PC. Any one got any ideas? Cheers.

After a bit of tinkering I've got xpadder to come round to my way of thinking! Thanks for the help guys!.

Yeah it shows in windows and in the gameex config menus, I don't mind using xpadder, but it doesn't seem to autolaunch and when it does I have to click on 3 options (about file association and a couple of other things) Then select the profile where I've mapped the stick to the arrow keys, I just want it to launch discretely!

HI, I've recently bought the SFIV TE arcade stick, the buttons all register fine, but the only way I can get game ex to register the stick is using Xpadder (The stick seems to be called a POV stick?) Is there anyway to get the stick to register without running xpadder beforehand everytime? Thanks.

I had trouble finding this but if you select MAME first of all,then on the screen that says "all mame games" , "Mame original game s" "Mame vector games" etc, scroll all the way to the bottom of that list for "update list"
