3dfx Posted January 22, 2002 Share Posted January 22, 2002 Sure, you have to follow this link: http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/sidewind...ult.asp#Soft_GC There, you will download it :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtgriffith Posted January 22, 2002 Share Posted January 22, 2002 I can only find drivers for Win9x. Which version are you running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neowin_hipster Posted January 22, 2002 Author Share Posted January 22, 2002 http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/sidewind...lt.asp#gameport Windows XP compatibility for SideWinder game port devicesThis section applies to you if you own one of the following SideWinder game port devices: SideWinder Force Feedback Pro, SideWinder Precision Pro SideWinder Force Feedback Wheel (game port version only) SideWinder Game Pad , SideWinder 3D Pro, The SideWinder software (version 3.02) included with these SideWinder game port devices is designed to work with Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows 98. If you have Windows 2000 or Windows XP, the operating system includes device drivers for these game controllers listed above, so the device will function properly on both Windows 2000 and Windows XP. However, the accompanying SideWinder software (version 3.02 or any previous version) will not function, so you will not be able to create profiles for these devices using the SideWinder software on Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Microsoft is not planning to update the SideWinder software (version 3.02) for game port devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtgriffith Posted January 22, 2002 Share Posted January 22, 2002 My last game pad was really cool. It had two axis, 10 butons, and force feedback. It wasn't USB either. There wasn't any drivers for Windows 2000 so I had to give it away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceHawk Posted January 22, 2002 Share Posted January 22, 2002 There is built-in support, because that's the joystick I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger H. Veteran Posted January 22, 2002 Veteran Share Posted January 22, 2002 yeah. i got that joystick too. I have the MS Sidewinder Gamepad too but i wanna sell that so i can get a newer USB version. I would sell both of them as a package as well as give you a another Joystick (Gravis Destroyer Xtreme) all for about $50 USD :) Anyone? email me to let me know what up.. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3dfx Posted January 22, 2002 Share Posted January 22, 2002 Yes, I have the force feedback pro and the freestyle pro, but they have nature support in Win 2000 and XP, so you don't need to install any software :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
