For some strange reason I can't configure my Thrustmaster wheel properly. Everything works fine except the left paddle. I didn't know until after I bought the thing that it uses paddles not a shifter. On my old board I used a Thrustmaster game card but my new board has no provisions for a ISA card. Is a new USB wheel the way to go? Also I'm wondering about frame rates. I average around 45-50 fps with all details on running 35 cars. System is a Duron 850 with 256 ram and Asus V3800 video card. Is this around normal, better or worse than what I should be getting? I'm considering getting a Geforce 2 card but want to make sure the money spent is worth it. It's either the card or a new wheel. Thanks for the help Max
Stick with what you got. I get 35-40 FPS in races and I have AMD900Tbird 256ram Geforce 64meg Prophet 52X cd sb live. Sounds like you are peaked for your system!
