| 111335 | 2003-01-05 23:43:00 | When I go to Control Panel, Gaming Options, after selecting the correct joystick I get "Unknown" and then "Not connected". I have tried a spare stick which does'nt work either. Both sticks worked fine when last used. I would appreciate some help. |

| 111339 | 2003-01-06 18:15:00 | Hey Are you installing it via the setup program that came with the devices or via Gaming Controls in the control panel, as some manufacterers only use the setup program to manage the device and it's caliberation/etc, and it's up to you to setup the device in control panel Start > Settings > Control Panel > Gaming Options Controllers Tab > Remove everything that's there, and then plug in one of your joysticks, click add, find your device, if it's not on the first list then click add other, and look in there.
