I haven't kept track of this particular problem, so I'm not sure if its a known bug or not, but when I enter a race in N4 I loose all force feedback in my Microsoft FF Wheel. It won't even centre itself. Anyone found a solution? PJ
No problems here... try tightening up the steering ratio and see if that helps. Paul Jager <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9wsw6.247771$[email hidden]...

Same problem with Guillemot Ferrari...someone suggested going to....control panel...gaming options...controller ID's... and either un-check or check the box labeled "poll with interrupts enabled." I think it was UN-CHECK but I have had the problem with both settings. It might be worth a try to change whatever your setting is and give it a try. (Don't gimme NOCRAP in E-mail)

Actually with mine it's rather sporadic. Sometimes I lose FF and sometimes the wheel sets itself al the way to the right. Sometimes it works flawlessly. (Don't gimme NOCRAP in E-mail)
Hmmm still sounds odd? What about your Dxdrivers? Are you using 6, 7a, 8 or 8a? I started with 7a and then hopped to 8a but from the start I never had these unusal "spikes" you are getting.. Maybe Papy can help?? Good Luck Thom_j. "PHYDEAUX99" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

DX8. Installed from N4 CD (Don't gimme NOCRAP in E-mail)
There are definetly issues with the MSFFW and N4 at the SuperSpeedways. The force around center is non-existent, and it's very difficult not to wander around the track. It's like you hit the "Force" button on the wheel and turned it off. You don't feel any friction at all until you enter the corners. On the other hand, it does lessen that dreadful pull to the left. -Larry "Paul Jager" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9wsw6.247771$[email hidden]...
