N2: hangup-gears

I did not see this in the FAQ (or TSW site)so here goes: All of a sudden, I am stuck in first gear & not able to shift (using a TSW wheel). All other controls (steering & acceleration/braking)function correctly. When I attempt to set controls the screen freezes leaving me to end & relaunch the program. Have shut down pc & re-plugged, etc.. to no avail. Again, the game gets hung up every time I try to set the gears. I could use a hand here. Thanks,George Clark.

Sounds like maybe you're having a problem with the wiring on the push buttons. On my TSW, sometimes the cover will put a little pressure on the 1/8" plug that connects the buttons on the wheel to the unit and it pops out just the tiniest bit, but enough to keep the shifter from working.
