Has anyone had any luck getting I'76 to work correctly with Thrustmaster's GrandPrix 1? MAy just be me, but on my system the wheel works fine, but the pedals are non-responsive (I know the wheel works because I have accelleration set to use the keyboard at the moment). They test out in windows'95 just fine. If you've gotten it to work, or if you have any ideas, please let me know.

The GP1 has no pedals. If you are using pedals with your GP1 then I suspect a bad connection. If not, set the Joystick control panel to 'custom" and set it for race controller. (This is assuming you use the cable adaptor) Mine calibrates fine and I use the paddles for accel/brake and have no problem. -=Don=-

Don, I meant the paddles. sorry about that. ;) I'm still having problems, but I went and picked up the ACM game card, I'm going to install that and see if it helps.

Well, that turned out to be the damn problem after all. After all the years of bagging on the damn ACM card (I've seen it with the FLCS, the F-16 and the TQS and it made no difference), I've become a convert.
