I just recently upgraded to Win98, and have a USB port available. My question is would I see better performance running my Logitech Wingman Formula in the USB over the MX300's game port? Thanks for the help

This is a totally un-tapped ellement that sim racers don't pay enough attention to. USB is much faster than a gameport, but the MX300 is probably the best gameport you can get. I'd go USB... James J Kopp <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:396cdf31$0$8320$[email hidden]...

I have an MX-300, and I also have a Logitech Wingman Fomula Force. What you mentioned, I'm not sure you can even hook it up to your game port on the sound card. The wheel I have, can only be hooked up to either the USB port or a Serial port, I don't have the option of using the sound cards game port. Unless they changed the hook up configuration, maybe you need to make sure this is in fact an option for you! J Kopp <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:396cdf31$0$8320$[email hidden]...
