Hello,

It's been a wuite a time since i posted here, but anyway, when i run =
nascar2, icr2, or any program, my t2 wheel wont calibrate correctly. =
It's the Blue plated version. For example, in N2, a sear point, i can =
have a 7 digree turn ratio, and i can make the whole coarse without =
pulling it to the limit. At martinslville, 5degrees is just perfect, and =
at taladega, i can't drive it's so sensitive, about less then a half a =
inch of a turn. Something crazy is going on with a P-233MMX system, TX =
Chip set, and running of my sound card. Can my 16 bit sound be causing =
all the trouble? because it's a 32/64bit system. Would upgrading to a =
sounb blaster 64 sound card solve all my trouble? I know the t-2 is not =
broken because i checked out all the part myself.

If your control option is set to wheel, change it to joystick/keyboard, or
vice versa.

Before you invest in a new sound card get a dedicated game card
Thrustmaster and CH both make one. I use the CH card and it solved very
similar problems.

Is this in "pure DOS" or inside Win95? It is possible that your bus
speed is too high for your soundcard's gameport. When you calibrate
it in ICR2 or N2, what are the numbers you get? You may need a speed
adjustable game controller card, so you can calibrate the gameport for
the speed of your machine.

If the problem is in a DOS box in Windows, you might want to get
Thrustmaster's Pro Panel and see if this will help your calibration
problems. (ftp://208.129.210.78/pub/library/propanel.exe)
