    Yeah i got it workin

    Just used a lame mac keyboard for the usb, the color of the wires didnt match up.. so it took a lil while.. and i had to restart my cpu a few times to finally get it working..

    Im having one prob tho, i tryed out first on Snes9x

    It works fine,but i cant seem to assign the diagonal on the d-pad??
    Any ideas?

    Oh yeah im using XBCDv107 - i assume this is the latest and best driver to use?

    Edit--

    Hmm so i tryed with ZSNES and it works fine with out any diagonal buttons...
    Weird? in Snes9x i cant do any moves on streetfighter 2,its all funny
