After installing the latest drivers the pc does not see the steering wheel. It is in the game controller window and says not connected. I had this problem before but connected the steering wheel to the com ports and it worked fine. After changing hard disks this does not work. I am trying to connect to the usb port or the serial port. Every once in a while in the game port window it will connect momentary and then lose the connections. The usb port works fine with other devices. Win 98 Asus with amd 450 Voodoo 3000 sb live thanks
I have one, so don't be offended - just trying to help, and this is all I can think of: The order in which I suggest you try the possible problems out is just that: a suggestion... A. Try reinstalling directX 8.x B. Try uninstalling the steering wheel and the reinstalling directX 8.x, followed by A C. Power cable problem? Is there a red light shining under the Ferrari sign (supposed to be on when plugged in and turned on). D. Cable problem between computer and steering wheel? E. Try reinstalling windows. I know a complete pain - but initially my steering wheel couldn't be located by win98 - which solved itself after reinstallation AND moving my win98 harddrive to the promise controller (on a Asus 4in1 KT133 motherboard)?! Dunno how on earth that could solve ANY problems but it did. Good luck, Carsten
