I got a Nascar Pro steering wheel for Christmas now I don't know if I
have a game card on my computer (I said newbie). How do tell if and what
kind of game card I have.
And if I don't have a game card what are some recommendations?

I'm certain you don't have a game card, unless you installed one yourself.
Your game port is most likely on your soundcard, or imbedded on the
soundcard built into your motherboard. Best thing you could do is download
the "propanel" utility from thrustmaster's website, makes setting it up in
win95 easier, and smooths out gameplay.

If you computer has a soundcard, you more than likely have a gameport on
your machine.  If you computer doesn't have a sound card it is highly
unlikely that you have a game port.  Look on the back of your computer
and look for a female connector with 8 holes on the top and 7 on the
bottom.  This should be your game port.
