If you used the CLI I'd tell you to include the parameter "-use_bezels" in the command line, or set the "use_bezels" option to "1" in mame.ini.

I'm sure there's a way to do it in the GUI, but I don't use the GUI.

Or, to all games (default)...

Next problem :)
When I use analog controller (spinner for example) then move from left to right is 2 (maybe 3) times faster than move from right to left.
My spinner is OK, I check it in Windows and Arkanoid.

Tried unplugging all your other controllers?

Yes. This problem with spinner is in this game only.

Destructor...
Do you tried to solve it as the same problem you had with KICK (and maybe with FOODF)? I don't tried TURBO still now.

Well, this week I've got many problems with controls of Turbo and so I can't play ... next week Pengo, one of the few games in my honest player's career I tried to play but I never got good results ... :cry:
Bah, now GEGOTW 2005 is near the end so I play just for training for GEGOTW 2006 !

My score was done using only the keyboard. No spinner or anything here. I did reassign the keys since my "Alt" button seems to open the damn Start menu in WinXP for some reason. Just started doing that a few weeks ago and I can't get it to stop.

KICK problem is different than TURBO. On KICK I played on keyboard (resign from mouse and spinner).
