Hi Friends,
I have this joystick that seems to work well for a while in Fs2002. However, often it stops working. The joystick lurches sideways and simply stops working. I go to the control panel where the stick is reported but when I try to configure it, nothing happens. If I then unplug and hotplug it in again it works for a while.
I have a P4 2.0a on an Abit TH7IIR Mobo, 512 Mb RAM. The I plug the joystick in through a USB 2 hub. My operating system is Windows XP Home.
I would welcome any suggestions or help on this issue.
Thanks,
Leporello

Basically, I've got the Microsoft Force Feedback 2 and everything seems to be working find. I don't understand your plane swerving left part but you can try to switch-on auto-rudder under the realism settings. If it isn't a hardware problem, it'll most likely solve the problem. Laughing

Thanks for the reply Darren. I had completely forgotten this problem. I solved it ages ago by plugging the joystick into a USB 1.1 hub, apparently the FFB 2 does'nt like USB 2.0.
