New to this, so sorry if in wrong category or if it has been answered. I recently purchased a MAME cabinet. Decent deal for a full size arcade done pretty well. It has worked fine for the most part. Trackball is not great, seems the a button sometimes will trigger the b button as well. So that sucks in shooting games with bombs like raiden or 1942. But Having a lot of fun,....... until recently. It worked fine on the weekend, but came in today on tuesday and the joystick and buttons function normal for the in Game Ex menus but once a game is launched they work no more. None of them do, like once it game its disconnected almost. I know nothing about it the programming etc. As far as I know, no has touched it or messed with anything. Although something is wrong, I dont know what the REAL case is. Any help would be a godsend, I am total newb about any of this stuff. Know a little about emulators and computers but not great at it. Any ideas? The control pad definitely works, just not inside the emulator/games. thanks
