In Reply to: 3 ports, 1 control panel posted by Darren Harris on 23, 2000 at 6:56 PM:
I can confirm that both PS/2 and serial mice/trackballs work together fine in Windows 9x, and under Win NT 4.0 SP6a. Both will control the same mouse cursor, and in Mame (in a DOS box, or Mame32) they'll both control the same player.
Under Advance Mame and Emu+ running in pure DOS, extra drivers are required, and each one can control a different player (meaning two player Marble Madness with trackballs is possible). I personally haven't tried this, but seems to work good for other people.
: Has anyone gotten the game port, PS/2 port and Serial port to work together? I've read that Advanced MAME as well as Windows 95 allow the PS/2 and Serial ports to work at the same time,(though I don't know if both are required together.)
: Can anyone elaborate on whether this is possible?
: Thanks a lot.
