The game runs, but it will not allow me to assign actions for my wheel. When I click on steering, brakes, or accelerator it will not leave the window open, so I can assign controls. (It did allow me once, after first install, but never again. I even uninstalled, and reinstalled). The only thing I can assign is up shift, down shift, and view. When I enter a game, it runs full throttle, and NO BRAKES! I have the wheel calibrated in Pro-panel, and in the game. Even when I set controls to default, everything works, except gas, and brakes. I am using a Nascar Pro wheel that works fine in ALL other sims, i.e. NASCAR3, and NL. I have all the latest drivers, and Dx7 beta installed. System: Win95b 200mmx 64 mb 3dfx Voodoo 2 1000 SB sound card (32 awe) Thanks for any help, Zach fordzilla88 AT hotmail DOT com

I had a similiar problem with DTR. When I would start up the game and enter a race, I was stuck on full throttle, no steering, and no brakes. It worked fine at first. The only solution I found (and it works every time) is to open the game controller control panel and click on properties, then go back and click on advanced and then click ok. Now when I enter DTR everything works (although occasionaly I have to reasign the the controls. Not sure why this works, but it does. I have no problems with games like N3 and SCGT. This only happens with DTR. btw, Im using dx7. My system c433, v3 2000, 128 meg, mx300, Act Labs Force RS + shifter. Hope this helps Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

I could never even get my T2 to be recognized, let alone calibrate or use it. I tried everything, kept getting "not connected"... I tried everything shy of throwing the whole deal out the door. Went to the Microsoft page, downloaded the 7a patch, and everything works fine.

Went back and rechecked my pro-panel, and I had switched from combined to separate. Went in and switched back to combined, and everything works fine. <Shhhhhh, don't tell anyone!> heheh Anyway, this has got to be the best 20 bucks I have ever spent on a game. Thanks for the replies, Zach
