Replying to Digest so please forgive me if this have been answered.

Í have a gravis gamepad pro USB (and might have mentioned it here) and it works
fine, I think what you do wrong is that you have tied it to: "everquest.exe" You
should tie it to "eqgame.exe". Another option (and what I do) is just to use the
setup for "all other games" and delete the one you have tied to everquest.exe, I
hardly play anything but EQ and when I do I just make a specific gameset to that
game. I do it this way because of two things:
1. Most other games can you ALT+TAB out of or start/end quickly, so its easy to
experiment with attaching the gamesets to different .exe files until you find
the correct one.
2. I can test the combos in notepad before starting up EQ (Its easy to make a
ENTER, misspell etc)

Lastly I found it nessesary to insert short delays between some of my commands.
Its no problem since you can do custom key sequences (Where you specify
everything, like mousbutton down, delay(100) , mousebutton up) by holding down
ctrl and pressing the mouse when opening a keypad button for editing...Atleast I
think you open the custom menu this way, but anyways its noted in the help or
readme files.

Hope this helps, if not youre welcome to email me on hholms@...

From time to time we get onto a hardware topic; my turn ;). Sylly, I have heard
you
say you use a gamepad yes?

I bought a Gravis GamePad Pro USB and it just won't work. I downloaded the
latest
driver from Gravis. I bound it to EQ and defined keys but nothing happens.

Any suggestions? Thanks =).
