Does anyone know how to get the Gravis GamePad Pro working in Win 2000 build 2099? Thanks.

Also how about the gravis Exterminator?? It's nice and all when you get the games working but no controller makes it pointless!

 

I'm using build 2114 and nothing so far has worked. Anyone know if Gravis is making any win2k drivers?

Here is the official word from Gravis:

You can hold your breath, but you may turn blue. We don't expect to have a working driver for Win2K until late in the first quarter...there is more to producing a driver/installer for Win2K than meets the eye of the casual user.

I wanted to try the beta, but I'm currently running Windows 2000 and was hoping that any betas you had out would work with it. Should I hold my breath or not? I've been really wanting to use my Xterminator Gamepad
with Win2k lately.

Or, do you know of any workarounds? I've tried telling Windows I had a 6 button gamepad and a 6 button joystick, neither worked. Ideas?

Sorry! (At least they're working on it!)

Gravis Gamepad PRO USB works fine in Win2k and have done so for a while (using 2195 120d now)
