The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft SideWinder Force Feedback Pro, version 1.0
-
Microsoft SideWinder Force Feedback Wheel, version 1.0
SUMMARY
To get the best performance from the SideWinder Force Feedback game
controller, the device should be plugged directly into your sound or
game card while your computer is turned off.
If you connect the controller through another device (such as a game
device, a MIDI device, or a switch box), force feedback effects may work
intermittently or not at all. If you experience this problem when you
connect the controller through another device, disconnect that device
and plug the SideWinder Force Feedback game controller directly into
your game port.
If you connect the SideWinder Force Feedback game controller to a single
SideWinder game pad that is already connected to your computer, you may be
able to hot plug the game controller without losing the functionality of
the controller.
However, you do receive the best performance from the controller if
you connect the SideWinder Force Feedback game controller directly to
the computer while the computer is turned off.
