I have been running a Thrustmaster ACM gamecard for a while in my system.
It was better than the gameport on my soundcard (CL PCI128 and now a
SbLive). But I saw an ad for the PDPI digital game card, so being the
computer game/hardware *** I am, I bought it. It came yesterday, I
installed it, and what an improvement! The shakey arms and steering wheel
in GPL is completly eliminated! The car in GPL fishtails (swims) alot less.
On NROS, the shakes in the turns is gone. The pedals feel like they work
more evenly. The steering just feels better. Upshot is that I highly
recommend this card.
The only drawbacks that I can see are that the card is somewhat expensive.
And it does not come with any type of written installation or concise
operating instructions. The readme file on the CD-ROM is sketchy at best.
I will post again after I have had a chance to play with the card some more.
Unfortunatly, I am going away for the holiday (going to Pheonix) which means
no racing for a few days :-(. Oh well.
