Hi I have a Logitech Wingman Formula Force wheel about a year old. I recently had to rebuild my PC after a major HDD failure so I thought I'd upgrade to Win2k. As a confirmed GPL fan its the only game on the machine. I have installed DX8, Win2ksp1, Logitech V3.62 drivers, Patched GPL with all the relevant bits etc etc. The problem is that whilst driving GPL it feels like the wheel is "snatched out of my hands" whilst turning left or right the wheel suddenly snaps away and I'm left with a somewhat uncontrollable car! These are my core.ini settings [ Joy ] allow_force_feedback = 1 ; Use FF if device has it force_feedback_damping =60.000000 ; force feedback damping coefficient force_feedback_latency = 0.060000 ; force feedback latency (secs) max_steering_torque = 300.000000 ; steering torque in N*in giving max device force There is another issue in that I have to go into the Game device settings each time the machine boots, check and uncheck the "report combined axes" box before GPL recognises my pedals as being on separate axes. I dont know if this is a related problem. It is really !"�$%^&ing me off that I have got everything running really well except my only game! If you have any ideas please help before I lose my marbles completely! Heres hoping! Rich
