I think that driver is for the usb version of my stick and I have already tried it, but I will try it again.

Thanks,

Great to hear from ya both.

Sounds like a pretty top notch system there Slash. Hope you don't have to do what I did when it comes to the joystick (which was to go get another...DOH!).

[WildSlash]

Well looks like I'm gonna have to get a new stick any recommendations?

Or can I get a USB to gameport adapter, I think I have seen them, I think my old joy would work with one.
I just hate to give up my Inteceptor, It is a great stick.
8 buttons plus shift
throttle
3 8-way hats

I love my stick. :'(

[M1A2Tanker]

Hmmm. Can't say I've seen them myself, but maybe there's something online you can order.

I know how you feel man, I had to get rid of my Force Feedback Pro...very annoying.
