XP, SBLive, TSW
Well, I built a new computer(thanks to a generous fellow sim racer). Since the
mobo doesn't have any ISA slots, I can't use my PDPL gamecard. The USB wheel I have doesn't have split-axis, so that makes it difficult to drive. I tried using my SBLive's gameport to run my TSW wheel. Couldn't find(or create) a config that worked right. Either the config didn't show both pedals, or the calibrate screen kept jumping around. This is a winXP system, and I'm sure I'm just not used to XP yet. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks! > > Eldred Hi Eldi, cannot really comment as I'm not on XP, but my TSW works fine on the SBLive's game port. I had to do some simple rewiring that's outlined on my homepage (see below for URL), and then I defined a new entry in win98se as a standard 3 axis / 4 button joystick and it worked just fine. Make sure you disable / enable "poll with interrupts enabled" in the game controller config, cannot remember which one it was. Let me know if you need more help and I'll be happy to. cheers, uwe -- mail replies to Uwe at schuerkamp dot de ( yahoo address is spambox) Uwe Schuerkamp //////////////////////////// http://www.schuerkamp.de/ Herford, Germany \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ (52.0N/8.5E) GPG Fingerprint: 2E 13 20 22 9A 3F 63 7F 67 6F E9 B1 A8 36 A4 61 |

I have xp. The short of it is that it will be very difficult to get the TSW
working with XP correctly. With my TSW2, it would work but work poorly because the option Uwe was talking about does not exist in XP, poll with interrupts enabled. So, I didnt have that much success until I got new lower grade 200 pots from Thomas Enterprises and a USB converter, then it was a ton better. They actually have a better method now that will basically rewire the TSW into a "native" USB controller with the high grade pots and that is what I will do eventually but havent since I dont drive that much right now. So, I would go that route ...
