Title: Odd problem with Jostick FS2 and XP
Post by: gevatter Lars on November 05, 2002, 04:23:59 am

I have reinstalled FS2 on a new PC with XP and it refuse to find the Joystick. Every other program finds a Joystick only FS2 not. Are there any solutions for that problem?
Windows shows that a Jostick is there and also other games run with it...
I have it on the soundcard and its not an USB Jostick (quite old Wingman).
