My force feedback joystick just doesn't seem to want to work with XP??
I have tried going to control panel and adding it through the Game
Controllers section but still nothing.
I have removed the gameport from the device manager, and let windows refind
it. Which it does and automatically finds a Sidewinder 3D joystick. But it
reports it is not connected. (Green Led on Joystick is on, and not flickering
as which happens when the AC adapter is not plugged in)
Now If I do the same again but unplug the Joystick, Windows finds the port
but not the joystick. Perfect. Then go to control panel and ask it to
autodetect the joystick, and it again finds the 3D pro even with nothing
plugged in.
If I plug the joystick in to a system witn win98 loaded and install the
driver.. It works perfectly
