I'm stumped on this one, so if anyone could shed some light on the subject, I'd appreciate it!

I have the switches on my coin door wired up to pins 40 and 41 on my KE72. I also have a "coin button" (mapped to the "5" keystroke) on the front of my control panel which is wired up to pin 39 on the KE72.

Here's my problem: When I'm in MAME, dropping a coin into the coin door does absolutely nothing...no credit is registered. If I tap the "coin button" that I have on the front, it *will* register a credit.

The keys ARE mapped correctly. If I'm in Notepad, DOS, KeyHook, etc., dropping a coin into the door immediately brings up either a "5" or a "6". It's just in MAME that it does nothing.

I've tried using DOS MAME 0.36 and 0.31 (and the same thing happens whether I use AAH or if I just start from a DOS prompt and type it in) and MAME32 0.36.

Arrrrgh! Any thoughts? Thanks!
