Anyone got this piece of crap to work yet? After fighting with it for three
weeks I put it back in the box. That was over two months ago. Thrustmaster
is no help. They have quit responding to their onsite forum. Lots of people
pissed off at Thrustmaster/Guillemot. I would buy something else but I just
don't like any of the other wheels out there and I just can't see spending
multi hundreds of dollars for some of the "professional" wheels out there.
Mine is working pretty well after about a year of tinkering with it. I used
to use a T2. Let me know what kind of problems you are having with it and i
will try to help you out.

Chuck the software and let windows recognize it as an HID device, 3 axis, 8
button joystick...mine has worked fine for 18 months
I had a lot of trouble myself till I downloaded their lastest drivers, works
great now.

I'll have to agree with you here. The software seems to screw with the
calibration quite a bit. Fortunately, you have the option of just installing
the basic drivers without the other garbage. Once I did it that way and
calibrated my wheel in Windows joystick properties, the wheel has been
working great ever since.
