    Anyone got any ideas how I can make this joystick work in windows2000? My joystick port is on a vortex2 soundcard which seems to be working fine, but the OS refuses to recognise the joystick. Strikes me as odd (or should that be ironic?) that MS don't support their own hardware in their new flagship OS. /grannoid

    Spot on kasnitch - if the control panel says it ain't there and I then unplug it and plug it back it it appears fine 9 out of 10 times! Thanks m8, I can go fly this helicopter now /grannoid

    OK cheers guys, I had another look yesterday and reinstalled the A3D drivers after fully clearing them out. The joystick now shows up in the control panel but only sometimes works - sometimes it shows up as status "unknown" or "disconnected", sometimes it's OK and works fine. I'll try the drivers from a3dfan but I'm starting to suspect a possible problem with the port or the joystick cable. Thanks for the suggestions /Grannoid
