% I got the new propanel from Thrustmaster, still win95 will not find my
% T2, i don't know it works great in dos, i've lost the sheet that said

% just about every combonation i think, don't know what to do now ,got to
% get it fixed with so many win95 sims comming.I can switch over to the my
% ch force fx and the propanel finds it fine, anyone got any other ideas i
% can try
Please reference the date code on the bottom of the steering console.
Please reference note for explanation of date code.
If the date code is less than 961118, (in other words, if the T2 was
manufactured before November 18th 1996) you need to use the converter
for Win95. Place the converter in between your joystick port and the T2
connector. If I remember correctly ProPanel will not detect your T2
if the converter is not installed properly. Try disconnecting the
pedals and see if you can detect the steering wheel only. Then try
connecting the pedals only to your game card and see if they can be
detected. If they can be found individually, the problem seems to be
with the converter. Though, I don't know what could go wrong with it
you may need another one. Contact ThrustMaster and ask for a new one.
If the date code is 961118 or later, (in other words, if the T2 was
manufactured after November 18th 1996) the converter is no longer needed
**Note: the date code consists of six numbers. The first two numbers are
the year of manufacture (961118). The second two numbers are the month
of manufacture (961118) in this case the 11th month or November. The
last two numbers are the day of manufacture(961118) in this case the
18th day. The proper translation of 961118 is November 18th, 1996.
