Can't center T2 under 95

Can anyone help me...Whatever I do I can't center my T2 in windows95.. And yes I am using the adaptor...What is more wierd is that it centers perfectly in dos. What could be the problem? Any help is apreciated... Hoang

I have the same problem! Also when I try to calibrate or test everything goes smoothly until I press the brake pedal. Then, w95 reports that the joystick is not connected properly. I have tried setting up as a custom, 2-axis, 2-button and also 2-axis, 2-button, race car controller with no success. I can only conclude that this is a driver problem as DOS calibration is fine in all my games. Paul.

Hoang, Are you seeing this only while in the Calibration box in Win95, or is it also showing up off-center in the TEST box? If it's only the Calibration, then that's fine...I'm not sure how normal it is, but Win95 often shows this while calibrating, and it does not effect the calibration of the stick adversely.

Paul, This is probably a problem with the game card that you are using. I've seen this exact problem several times, and in all instances, it was solved by a Dedicated, Speed Adjustible game card. If you already have one, try adjusting the speed up or down a bit. If you don't, it may be a good idea to invest in one(only about $35 locally). Here's a few that I'd recommend: ThrustMaster ACM Game Card Gravis Eliminator Card CH Game Card III Matt ThrustMaster, Inc.

That would be pretty good advice if it actually worked. I have an ACM card, a T2, and an FLCS, and I can't even get win95 to acknowledge that I have a joystick attached at all (much less the T2). It's all going through a JoySwitch switch box, but even plugging directly into the ACM does not help. Under Win95, my thrustmaster stuff may as well be plug-n-play (yes, that was a slam on both Win95's plug-n-play inabilities and Thrustmasters compatibility). /===================================================\ | John Simmons (Redneck Techno-Biker) | | http://www2.connectnet.com/users/jms/index.html | \===================================================/

Is your ACM card listed under 'Sound, Video, and Game Controllers' in the Device Manager? -- Emory University Graduate School of Arts & Sciences Nascar Setups Page: http://userwww.service.emory.edu/~ebusch/ compatibility).

Hi, I have a T2 wheel controller on friends second computer and problem is as follows: I am also having problems under WIN95 a T2 controller. Under calibration and under Test the crosshair is located/pinned down in the far lower right corner of the calibration/test window with all controls centered. Cannot calibrate unit at all. I am using the SB16 sound card, and works fine with my TSW wheel controller on my computer with same sound card. .I tried it with and without adaptor with no sucess. I dont see why we have to buy some special card for using T2 if my TSW works fine under same conditions and I will not buy one. Ive tired two different T2 devices on both computers with no success. Under dos, the T2 works fine. Any suggestions? Trying to help a friend to get his T2 to work. Thanks for any help Dave Thayer
