I'm unable to calibrate my Wingman Extreme Digital joystick under the "Control" menu of the game. (No response to the x or y setting.) I've tried downloading the patch for win95 ver. B, I've tried installing the game in DOS, as well as running the game in DOS, but to no avail. When I check to see what version of Win95 I'm running, as per the directions at the Sierra FAQ page, I see 4.00.950, but no letter. Frustration is setting in. Any suggestions?

Sounds like you need to install the microsoft patch for win95 to bring win95 up to the B version. It shopuld still be the sevice pack 1 located on the ms web site. geo

Same problem here. No joystick response...although it tests fine. (I'm using a Sidewinder PrecisionPro digital joystick.) If you find a fix, please pass it on to me. Thanks. MB btw - mine is win95 B. doesn't seem to make any difference.

Have you installed the Nascar 2 patch? I had joystick recognition problems until i did, then the patch fixed it. Ken The Game Pad http://gamepad.org/
