I have always easily set up the controllers for Mame, but I have an X arcade stick, and I really don't understand how it might have gone bad.  I bought it when compjters f\were mostly Ps/2 and than I upgraded to the new USB port.  Except that you have to have a PS@/2keyboard to program it.    I pluged in the USB cable, but I no longer own a computer that even has a Ps/2 slot.  Are these things that outdated?  Or is there a work around I can use.  I haven't used it in 5 years because I had no idea how to reprogram it.  I tried setting the defaults in the xarccade book but it isn't responding to anything I do.  I can't believe it is bad so I would like to know how to reset my Mame to the original default controller settings.  Thanks.  Leighton

Probably easy to order via Amazon a ps2 to usb adapter about  £1 GBP. That's what I did for my tankstik.

I went through the exact same thing. I had the old PS/2 X-arcade with a Y-adapter that I had stashed in the closet for a few years. When I brought it out to try with Windows 7 I found that it sometimes lagged or did not respond.

I ended up switching the guts out for an iPac with a new stick and buttons. A few of the guys on these forums were super helpful.
