HW/N4: Trouble with MS Sidewinder in N4 on W2K

by Jonathan Hurle » Fri, 11 May 2001 01:56:04

I am running N4 on a wind2K box (and does anyone else feel that Papy's
requirement of having Admin rights to *run* the thing is slightly
ridiculous?). I have the non-FF Sidewinder wheel, and the drivers that came
with my Win2K disk running it. the Game Controllers applet in Control Panel
sees all the functions of the wheel - but when I crank up N4, I can only see
2 buttons, and the wheel. I don't get the pedals, nor any buttons but A and
X...

I tried downloading the Sidewinder utils from MS, but I can't get them to
install, something about 'cannot find <setup/_setup.exe>

Thanks for any help I can get


1. N4: best HW config

2. Logoitech Profiler, W2K, N4

3. N4 w/Radeon 8500 on W2K

4. N4 boycot? (N4 should include Trucks)

5. N4 -- Sidewinder Precison Wheel Pulls Left!

6. N4 + MS Precision Racing Wheel, any experiences?

7. New machine - N4 won't see MS FF wheel - Help!

8. ms game voice in N4

9. N4 and MS ISA firewal
