X360 controller coin and start problem

Hello,
I've connected a usb x360 controller to my pc to use with MAME. It works very good, but for some reason the SELECT and START button, although mapped via the gui as COIN and START, do respond in game.
Ideas?

Define "mapped via the gui" - if you did it externally, it's possible MAME may number the buttons a little differently or something, and remapping via the Tab menu might yield better results. In any case, I use a wired 360 controller on my Linux system and start/select work fine as coin/start, so it's definitely possible to make work

Sorry, what I meant by gui, is via the tab menu.
So the keys worked when I mapped them, but then I couldn't insert coins nor start.

That's how I map mine. Never had an issue with it.
Works as expected.

This will sound either obvious or dumb (and probably won't make a bit of difference anyway)... But what about *sigh* updating the drivers?
I just thought I'd mention it because I had to do it several months back on my Win7 computer. But, at the time - I was playing games in Steam, not MAME.
But since then I have put MAME and a few games on that (this) computer. I haven't had any trouble setting those 2 buttons. Actually, I have one as PAUSE, and the other as 1st Player Start.
