HELP! I am trying to install a Microsoft Sidewinder FF wheel on a new system. The pedals are recognized by the game and the buttons, but the gear paddles are not. I've tried the DirectX and the Papyrus joystick drivers. Everything is recognized in the Control Panel/Game Controller calibration. Any suggestions? Thanks for any help you can give. -- Godspeed Jim Blevins Christian Racing Association, Inc. www.christianracing.org
Jim, Load up the "Nascar Racing 2" profile that installs with the Sidewinder software. It works fine w/ N3, except that you will have to modify the profile to enable split-axis pedals. regards, Gordon.

you have to use the profile software for the paddles, for me I used page up for shift up and page down for shift down and assigned those to the paddles with the profile software, It works great, If you dont have version 3.02 of the profile software get it at http://www.microsoft.com/sidewinder
If you use the Nascar 99 profile in sidewinder software, you can then use these paddles.

You have to set up a profile. -Larry
