Thrustmaster Ferrari 2.5.14.0 Drivers?

Anyone know where I can find the 2.5.14.0 drivers? I had to do a new install of XP, and now N2003 doesn't recognize my wheel half the time with the current drivers I'm using (2.22.15.0). I can't wait until the day finally comes when we are all using the XBox2/Playstation2 and all this hardware/software configuration/tweaking/troubleshooting/wasting my f***ing life bullshit is finally over. David G Fisher

Well, I sure hope the day never comes when we are all using console crap. As for the wheel drivers, your post brought back memories of my time constantly struggling with the drivers for the Guillemot/TM Ferrari wheel. Solution for me: get a Logitech MOMO Racing wheel. If I factor in the time saved f&^*ing with drivers, the new wheel has cost me nothing. It is also a much better product. And Logi knows drivers, whatever their other strengths and weaknesses are. The profiler software actually works as a bonus and now that I never have to adjust the various settings to get optimised FFB in games, I almost forgot how irritating that was with the Ferrari too. Good luck. Marc "David G Fisher" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Just what we need Dave, a bunch of 14 yr olds to race against (or should I say, "a bunch of 14 yr olds to try and dodge as they come at us head on"). Yea thats gonna be fun... I do sympathize though, it gets frustrating at times but in the long run we need something that costs more and takes some brains to get running just to weed out the punks...

The wheel works great in F1C and all other racing games I've tried. Smooth, precise, and the ff is excellent.Works great with N2003 when there isn't a problem with the game recogning the wheel. N2003 is the only game I ever have a problem with actually.

Which wheel precisely are you using? You should probably be using the 10.0.3 unified FF drivers along with the latest Thrustmapper to set the profile for the specific game. http://ts.thrustmaster.com/eng/index.php?pg=view_files&gid=1&fid=2&pid=178&cid=1 Andi. -- Remove only one zero to reply.

How's the hotel business? Still doing your Basil Fawlty impression? :-) I've tried the 2.6 drivers as well. No matter what drivers I use, N2003 will recognize the wheel the initial time I start the game after a fresh driver install, but rarely at any start up after that. Everything works perfectly in F1C and the GTR demo. N2003 is the only game that's causing me headaches. I'm trying to find the 2.5.14.0 drivers because that's what I was using before the reformat. They worked fine. Maybe I'll re-install the game too. David G Fisher

I found the drivers here http://us.thrustmaster.com/support/link_driver.php3?TMprodid=72&c=2&p=4&ShowPrevious=1 but I'm still having the same problem and have now wasted about 5 hours on this junk. Even re0installed the game. N2003 just won't recognize the more than once after I re-install the drivers. Bring on the XBox2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not going to happen. I'll not have a console 'toy' in my house. Of course, they could just not release things for the PC, but then it'll be their loss. Mike

As I said, get a decent wheel (as in one made by a company that makes competent drivers). Unless you enjoy wasting your time like this (I sure got tired of it quickly). Every title works flawlessly and first try now that I have ditched my never-ending-tweaking-necessary Ferrari. Switching to a piece of shit console isn't a solution (although understandable given the frustration factor).

David, Although the Ferrari wheel is not specifically listed on the UK site I would think the Unified drivers for the other Thrustmaster FF wheels might be worth a try. http://ts.thrustmaster.com/eng/index.php?pg=view_files&gid=1&fid=2&pid=178&cid=1 Andi. -- Remove only one zero to reply.

His current wheel works on everything ELSE that he runs. Why get a new wheel for ONE game?

I've never installed that and everything works fine for me. Can't even see the point of it! Still weird though, cos I'm sure we decided some time ago that the 2.6.3 drivers were the most stable. I have absolutely no problems at all. Try uninstalling the mapping software and see if that makes a difference. Iain

So you saw my latest? One of my best I think. :-o David G Fisher

I tried those, but still no go. N2003 just doesn't want to recognize my wheel consistently. F1C still works perfectly though.

Oh that's right. Sounds like a lot of work, and I'm sure you're right about the staff. > > I've tried the 2.6 drivers as well. No matter what drivers I use, N2003 > will > > recognize the wheel the initial time I start the game after a freshdriver

No, I'm not using the mapping software. I also don't see the point of using it. I just built a new system, new XP install, and the only problem I have is this issue with N2003. BTW, why don't you race with us in RASCAR on Sat.'s sometime when you've got the time? David G Fisher David G Fisher
