I have a MSFF USB and get a solid 36fps except at the start or when things really get busy. At the start with another 15 cars it drops to 12 minimum but soon recovers.

My FPS gets realy bad hits after enableing the FFB on my MS sidewinder(USB)wheel. Any solution for this ? I'm using P2 400 128MB VooDoo5500 and my FPS is around 10-12. it sucks bad.. Thank you for your time. Ichiro Yoshida
DirectX 7a did fix some FF problems, but unfortunately not this one. Apparently this wheel uses a lot of CPU time to generate the FF effects, the problem is just as bad with Dx 7a and I had to return my USB MSFF for a refund. "Neil" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
