HI folks,

Fantastic emulator :]

Having a spot of bother with an error i get everytime i run v3.7 though.

I get the error 'DirectInput Init Failed - Aquire'. There are no joysticks plugged in. Is this related to controllers?

Many thanks



P.S What is the 'registering' for please, for the emulator? as im a returning user from previous versions.

The error message you are getting is related to DirectX with respect to your controllers/joysticks - there may be some problem with your drivers or getting exclusive access to them within DirectInput. Check your drivers and make sure you have the latest DirectX installed for your version of Windows.

The registration of CCS64 does not matter with CCS64 V3.x, since CCS64 V3.x is not 'crippled' in any with if you don't register it. It is a donation-based scheme. But if you are already registered and have a valid CCS64 key-file, then this does not matter.
