Game Controller

Guest

Hey,
Anybody got any ideas when I try to add a USB joystick it isn't added to the
game controllers, and when I try to add it to the list I get a message saying
this is not available at my system priveleges and I should log in as an
administrator. However I only have one account on Vista set up and this is
an administrator account.

As a side note, anybody also have problems with the sound in pro evolution
soccer 5 / winning eleven 9?

Thank you.

Try installing the latest drivers. I have a PSX to USB adapter I bought at
Radio Shack. Worked great in XP but Vista would not recognize it. Finally
downloaded the latest drivers from Radio Shack's website and now it runs
fine.

Hi Goober
Same problem here re: the not logged on as admin.
I'm using 3 CH devices which are apparently ready to use according to vistas
device installed box, after pluging the 3 devices in. However on trying to
select them in game controllers. I get the same thing as you. I've even
created another admin account to no avail :( This all seems crazy seeing as
vista lets me access Admin Tools and create holy havoc in there ;)

Hi Goober
Same prob here re: game controllers, I even created a new admin account but
no dice. Wierd as vista allows me to use admin tools and create havoc LoL.
Strange thing is when I plugged my 3 USB CH devices in vista seemd to find
all without a hitch. "your device is ready to use... blah". None are listed
in game controllers however :(

Did you try to temporaty turn off UAC (User account Control)?[requers
reboot].

It's sometimes help me when similar message appear (you must logon as
administrator, when i actualy loged on as administrator).
When they will be installed/listed then you can again turn on UAC.[this to
requers reboot].

ajd has the answer---disable 0r turn off user account control--go into help
& type user account control --or in "RUN" type secpol.msc & near the bottom
disable one of the user account controls try one at a time . requires restart.

To disable UAC, go to User Accounts (as Administrator) -> Change Security
Settings -> Uncheck User User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your
computer.
