I don't know if this is the best place to ask this question but SoundBlaster wasn't much help. I can't get anymore than two buttons to work on any joystick (be it a T1 or Gravis gamepad) in Win95. It just won't configure and recognize the other buttons! I know it's probably a jumper decision on my SoundBlaster 16 PnP but I have no idea what. Like I said SoundBlaster and their manuals wasn't much of a help. If anyone knows what to do please tell me, I'm getting desparate for some racing in Win95!!! Thanks, Scott

The only jumper on a soun blaster is to disable the joystick altogether. check to see whether the 2nd & 3rd buttons ARE the 2nd and 3rd buttons on joystick one and not the 1st and 2nd on joystick 2. Hope this helps John,

Also go to the Thrustmaster web site and read their support files about pnp conflicts. Of course you'll have to get an acm card if you haven't already..but...TM does a good job of providing graphics and text to guide you through the process.
