Barely... You will have to use the basic mini-driver that XP installs. You will never have control over Force Feedback, Split Axis or the other features of the wheel, however. Just basic left right gas and brake. And, it won't work in all games. Since Microsoft has abandoned the Gameport version of it's controllers and their customers, this will not improve. -Larry "Michael Enright" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Hi All, > > Just wondering if the old version, serial that is, not USB, of the MSWheel > works in XP??
