CAN'T CALIBRATE JOYSTICK IN NEED FOR SPEED SE

After installing NFSse I can go to the joystick calibration screen and move the gear shifter all around the screen. Then I push a button to save the calibration and nothing happens. I have to press escape to get out of the calibration and it does not save the joystick calibration. I have tried both installations, Win95 & DOS. I have tried my joystick which works in NFS2 & NFS3. I also tried my wheel that I use in NASCAR2. I emailed Electronic Arts about it a few days ago but have not received a response. This is the Electronic Arts CD-ROM Classics version of NFSse. Is there any way to get it to work or should I just return it? Thanks Chuckie

Hi Chuckie, For steering wheels use the DOS "joy???" program to calibrate first. It's in the NFE-SE folder. Jason.

No problem. NFS is a great game but I stopped at NFS-SE. Love driving the Viper and Porche for there tail waggin' ways :) I was exicted about Hard Truckin' hoping it might have oncoming traffic too ;) I believe it doesn't have oncoming traffic, but if anyone knows for sure please correct me. -------- Jason Monds "My other car is a Ferrari" http://members.home.net/gpl.mondsj/gpl - For my combined gas/brake setups (Please remove 'no extra spork' when replying)
