I drive Papy sims. Rarely do I do anything else with the PC. BUT, when I
do try other bits and bobs it becomes a right royal pain with controllers.
Currently:
#1 Logi MOMO
#2 ACT LABS GPL Shifter
#3 Rockfire USB Adaptor Mode 3 (modded T2 pedals for clutch)
#4 TM NASCAR Pro (use for pedals 'cause the MOMO deal is utter crap) through
a 4-way gameport switchbox going into the SBLive.
So, if a mate comes round and we wanna play a 2-up game with joypads, I can
switch my gameport box to where I've got the Sidewinders daisychained but I
obviously still have 3 usb devices attached ahead of them.
Is there a way of writing a macro to allow me to remove controllers from the
Gaming Options control panel? And obviously have one to put 'em all back in
the right order once I'm done so I can get racing again ASAP?
Thx,

With that many devices it's really hard to juggle them around. Do you
have to use gameport devices? I eliminated mine altogether. If I
were you I'd replace the gameport devices with equivalent USB devices.
It is so much easier to unplug and plug up the ones you want.
I have:
MS Wheel
GPL Shifter
Performance Pedals
USB Gamepad
When I want to play GPL, I unplug them all and plug the MS wheel, the
pedals then the shifter last, they get assigned ID #1, 2, 3.
If I want to play a game that uses gamepad, I'll unplug them all and
plug in the gamepad and it's asssigned #1.
