> In the manual it says install the software first b4 plugging in the hardware. > Did you guys do that? yes. had this problem myself when reinstalling my machine ... unplug the lwff, deinstall every bit of the profiler, drivers etc. and clean the registry as well, delete file leftovers. after this, download newest drivers from www.wingmanteam.com, install them and plug the lwff in when told. keeping my fingers crossed for you!

I was playing GP2 with it all controls failed as I was approaching a chicane at 300kph, crashing to the wall head on, kinda reminded me of Senna's crash. Anyway I tried everything, going to the Game Controller's properties, the Status reads "OK" but when i went to the test window there was no respond to anything, buttons, wheel, pedals. I tried taking out the serial-to-usb converter and plugged into my COM1, didn't work as well. Uninstalled everything and try reinstalling but didn't work as well. In the manual it says install the software first b4 plugging in the hardware. Did you guys do that? Shit, damn disappointed! :( Bringing the thing back and hopefully getting a new one on the spot. --- Shellfer.

Have you tried downloading the latest software upgrade for the LWFF? I don't think you want what is on the CD. You should at least check it out. -- [email hidden] "Shellfer" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > I was playing GP2 with it all controls failed as I was approaching a chicane at > 300kph, crashing to the wall head on, kinda reminded me of Senna's crash.

Perhaps you should try it on another computer aswell to avoid embarassement when you go into the shop and the guy plugs it in and it mysteriously works (speaking from experience) Ash "Greg Cisko" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:yTUh5.11716$[email hidden]...
