Homemade Wheels in Win95

Just a quick question. I just patched my IndycarII game to Win95
version. I noticed in the notes on the readme that a "single axis
controller will not work in Win95". To me, that tells me that the nice
homemade wheel I made using a single pot will not work correctly in
Win95. Does anyone else have any experience with this condition? Do I
have to wire a dummy pot to the wheel in order to calibrate with
Win95? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanx!!

I have a home made wheel with wiring that basically follows the T2 and
it works. You have to use a converter to put the brake/gas on the
other axis of the 1st joystick for Win95 to recognise it as AFAIK.
This converter comes with the T2 but I dont know where to buy one
retail, shouldnt be real hard to make one though.
