Question for those using a Logitech Momo with XP

by Glen Pittma » Sun, 03 Mar 2002 23:45:49

For those who use one of these wheels, I have a question about the settings
under game controllers.

When I go into game controllers, either through the control panel of XP, or
the Wingman profiler menu(Device-->Game Controllers-->Properties), and
choose settings, the settings are always default.

The checkbox is always defaulted to combined pedals, and the FF is enabled
at 100% for all three settings.

I can change this, click close, and the apply button on the next window
isn't available.  I can also go directly back in to settings, and they are
all set back to the defaults.

Can someone verify whether my system is working the way everyone else's
works, or do I have a problem with my system.

Windows XP, Logitech Wingman software version 4.11c

Thanks,
Glen Pittman

Although I don't immediately have a solution for you, I can tell you that I
too use that wheel (and 4.11c software) in WindowsXP without any problems.

Are you logged in, either as Administrator, or with administrator rights by
chance?

I do have administrator rights on my account that I use.

So when you go to the settings and change them in game controllers, does it
save them?  Meaning, next time you choose the properties for the Momo, then
settings, you have the same changes showing that you had made previously?

Thanks for any help.

I believe I have this solved now.  For some reason, some of the entries in
my registry that control the game port settings and Logitech devices didn't
have the right permissions applied.  I removed and re-installed everything
about the wheel, and received a message about unable to write to a registry
key.  I changed the permissions, and now all seems to be well.

Hope this helps someone else who may be having these problems, but as usual,
I am probably the only one...<G>
