Help! N2 wheel and Win95 Problem

Yep, I bought a N2 wheel less than two months ago and the floppy disk ProPanel that came with it didn't even have the N2 Wheel as one of the choices. It's version 1.0. So I downloaded version 1.1 from Thrustmaster at [link lost in import] wheel in the list. I can switch between the Sidewinder 3D joystick and the N2 Wheel without rebooting using ProPanel. They also have the TMScope utility there to test the potentiometer in the wheel. -- Bill Jones e-mail addresses: (860) 437-5650 WWW: http://pages.cthome.net/billj

AFAIK the pedals when set to separate axis skip an axis, so the windows setup doesn't recognise it. You will need to install Thrustmaster's Pro Panel which should have come with the wheel and calibrate the wheel as a Nascar Pro with separate pedals. In GPL if possible try to use the optimised setting which bypasses the windows game controller and reads directly from the wheel. Ian P
