Hmm... sounds to me like you should get a dedicated game port... or maybe you can mess with the memory address to move the ports memory away from anything anywhere close to it... just my guess.
Okay, after a major system problem I am up and running again except for one thing, I can't get any game controller to work outside the control panel calibrate and test area. Here is what I have Pentium 2 266 AGP motherboard 64 megs of SDRAM AWE 64 Sound Card S3 Virge 2mb 3d card (This is only temporary, my major system problem was due to the STB Velocity 3d 4mb failing, throwing my system into Windows Protected Mode) The Games at the Moment I want to run are Dark Forces, Jedi Knight and NASCAR 2. I think I have to reload NASCAR 2 because after running the patch I couldn't enter the game. Anyway, the first step in my estimation is to get any of my 3 controllers to work. I have the Gravis PC Game Pad, Virtual Pilot Pro & just got the Gravis GamePad Pro. Take your pick, the first and second are for Dark Forces and Jedi Knight, the VP Pro for NASCAR 2, but if anyone take email me and talk me through gettting any of these controllers to work I will be very greatful. Creative Labs response was less than useful. Thanks
