Since changing my OS to Windows XP home edition,I have
not been able to properly use my MSFF Wheel / Pedals.
The action on GP4 is only to dump me back to
the "desktop". The accelerator pedal does'nt work at all.
I have tried latest drivers on SB 4.1 Digital
card,Directx 9.0b,and Nvida graphics card. The setup
worked fine on win98se??.
Are Microsoft disregarding their customers, the
MSFFWheel/pedals cost £99.00 and it's useless with XP???

Hello

Well did you take time out to find out if it will work under
XP before upgrading, and have you went to the maker of that
product to see if it is supported by XP, is not an MS issue
you need to contact the maker of that product and find if it
is supported under XP. That's the most common issue that
users run inot when they upgrade

The MS ForceFeed back devices do not use serial connections. They use the
Joystick/gameport connections. XP can only use the built-in device drivers
for there is no further driver development since MS is discontinuing the
joystick/gameport drivers. The games themselves must provide their own
forcefeed controls.
