Looking for actlabs force RS split axis drivers

I've done a format of my HD recently and now I'm mising he split axis checker from my Actlabs Force RS drivers. Can anybody point me to the right drivers please? I've downed the latest drivers (v2.1) from http://www.actlabs.com but hey don't seem to have hat feature. (?)

That's odd. My v2.1 has the option. Here's where I found it on mine. Control Panel -> gaming options -> select Force RS device and click properties. I found the split axis checkbox on the Test Input tab. My setup uses USB. GL. On Fri, 04 May 2001 18:27:46 GMT, "Tim Vanhee" <[email hidden]> wrote:

It ain't there, that's for sure.... Take a look at this screenshot: http://secret.lab6.com/uploaded_files/989021233.jpg it says v2.1 but there's no split axis checker. skeeter <[email hidden]> schreef in berichtnieuws [email hidden]...

Another wierd thing is that when I look on my panel, it doesn't say v2.1 on it like yours does. I know I've installed the latest though because I've got it in a directory where I save off all of the updates for my various components. Are you running using the serial port or USB? Have you started with the drivers on the CD that came with the controller then upgraded from there? Sorry I'm not being of much help.

It looks to me like you have the wrong version of those drivers. I'm on 1.23 and that's what I see on the ACT-Labs page as the latest version. Here is the way to remove the incorrect drivers and install the correct ones (this is from ACT-Labs Tech Support): ====================================================================== 1) On the Force RS CD there is a utility called RS CLEANER. Unplug your Force RS from the power connection, and disconnect it from the back of the computer, then run this utility on your computer. 2) Once the RS CLEANER utility has finished cleaning the existing drivers from your system, perform the following steps: a - Click START->SETTINGS->CONTROL PANEL->GAMING OPTIONS and delete any reference to the Force RS. b - Click START->SETTINGS->CONTROL PANEL->SYSTEM->DEVICE MANAGER, and open the "Sound, Video and Game Controllers" listing. Highlight and delete any reference to the Force RS. 3) Once that's done, leave your Force RS unplugged and reboot your computer. 4) Once your computer reboots, connect to the internet. 5) Go to http://www.act-labs.com/race1_support.htm 6) If you are using Windows Millennium Edition, download the Force RS version 2.1 drivers located here: http://www.act-labs.com/drivers/ForceRSv21.zip DO NOT USE THIS DRIVER IF YOU ARE RUNNING ON WINDOWS 95 or 98! Installation instructions for the 2.1 driver (Millennium ONLY) are located here: http://www.act-labs.com/drivers/readmev21.txt 7) IF YOU ARE USING WINDOWS 95 or 98 download this driver instead: http://www.act-labs.com/drivers/ForceRS123.exe Installation instructions for the 1.23 driver are located here: http://www.act-labs.com/drivers/readme.txt 8) Follow the installation instructions for your specific driver. It is very important that you clean off any existing Force RS drivers from your system before trying to re-install them. if you do not have the RS Cleaner utility, you can download it from here: http://www.act-labs.com/drivers/CleanFRS.exe ====================================================================== Good luck, Yippee38

Great bunch of info Yippee. FYI, I went to the Act Labs page and they show a v2.1 driver for Win98. They do state that if you have problems to contact Act Labs and then try the v1.23 drivers. On Sat, 5 May 2001 13:14:47 -0500, Yippee38 <[email hidden]> wrote:
