I'm having a hell of a time trying to get my joystick working under XP. On
the Microsoft site they mention version 4.0 drivers but I can only find
version 3.01 drivers which won't work under XP, can anyone help me???
PLEEEEEZE!!!  :)

TIA.

Version 4 is for USB, which works just fine under XP.  They would be on
your driver CD.  If you have a gameport stick/wheel, you can only use
version 3xx.  Don't think there has been much success with these in XP.

No success at all :-(

It's either a new wheel or back to Win 98.  Hmmmmmmmm......... New wheel,

- Got to: http://www.driverguide.com/
- Click on member login (login: drivers; pass: all)
- Go to driver search (bottom of page)
- Go to: 2. Drivers found by members
- Type: sidewinder

You should find the 4.0 software there. (if you don't have the CD)
My MS FF2 (USB) works fine in XP, btw.
