I hope you don't try this with your girl when she won't do it. I don't know your bug, but I did notice that my Dual-schockpad sometimes conflicts with Demo-CD's. When some Demo-CD's reset, I can't use the Dualschock-pad to navigate, I need to hard-reset the NY to get it right again. Any others with this problem?
