Hi Bodyprint!

Thanks

Hi Bodyprint!

ok I found out that I was in the "wrong forum" ;-)
After I registered at http://www.vistax64.com
and checked this link you provided ->
http://www.cold-incision.com/SE WEB/Installers/StrategicSetupv1.3.exe I 'm
finally happy!

Thanks for the good job, tomorrow when I'm back from my travel I test it
completely at the weekend and post everything I find as a potential Bug. As
I'm working in support and deal all day with our development and normally
find also every day a bug in our software, therefore I'm shure I will find
here also a few :-)) LOL - ok just kidding ;-)

So thanks again for the posts!
Theo

Don't panic, just follow the instructions this post I made a couple of weeks
ago and all will work beautifully I promise. Since then I've also used it in
gothic3 and splinter cell double agent.

Well having spent most of the afternoon moping about it I actually got the
sidewinder to work, it’s quite simple.
Install the sidewinder software, at a certain point you will be asked if “
you really want to quit the setup program?†say yes.
Tootle off to the folder in which you installed the software and drag
“DEAMON14†into startup and you might as well get yourself a shortcut to the
program itself on the desktop while you are at it.
Now get yourself off to Device manager by your favourite route. Under the
heading “Human Interface Devices†you will see two ( maybe more) items. The
ones we are interested in are
Usb Human Interface Device, this equals your strategic commander
And
HID compliant device, this little fellow will become ms sw strat com hid
drivers
Two other devices will appear as we get the drivers installed, these are ms
virtual keyboard and ms virtual mouse, hoorah.
So to get the little devils working like you want, right click on the “Usb
Human Interface Device†choose “update driver software†then click “browse
my computer for the driver softwareâ€
Then click “ let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer†then
you will be given a list in that list will be “ Microsoft strategic
commander†click on that, followed by “next†around this point you will get
the usual warning that the driver is unsigned click on “install anyway†or
the equivalent there of!!
Rince and repeat for the HID compliant device and when you have done that
you will find that the virtual kb and mouse will have appeared, you should
not have to change their drivers. Windows will tell you that you need to
restart your computer (that has not changed) and when you reboot your strat
comm should work!!!
You will need to repeat this process if you change usb ports, I’ve tested
it in guild wars and nwn2 and all was fine.
