Hi,
I've got a problem with my Ferrari FF Wheel Drive.
In various racing games, it works fine for a while and suddenly stops
responding.
Anyone had the same problem and a solution ?
Thanks very much.

My config :
Asus A7n8X De Luxe
AMD XP2800
Leadtek A350XT GeForce FX5900XT
Windows 2K Pro

USB card will sort it, until(!) they fix it, have not tried it yet.

Dear Customer,

There seems to be somekind of incompatibility between our Force feedback
wheel the Nforce2 chipset based motherboards, we are in the
process of try to see it the problem can be fixed by drivers updates but
for now the only solution if to plug it on a PCI USB card.

I apologize for the inconvenience and delayed response as a lot of Emails
were blocked by our servers for a couple of weeks and has been
resolved now.

Best Regards,
Hercules, Thrustmaster Technical support specialist

motherboard. That's so stupid...

Thanks Gary for this precious information.
Now, I know what the problem is, so I will stop looking for various drivers
to try to solve this problem.
I bought today a PCI / usb card then I will test it with my games this
week-end.

Thanks again for your answer.
