  My Flight Simulator 2000 and Combat Simulator flights are loaded on my Windows 7 computer.  Everything seems to work except the control stick.  There are vibrations and the throttle response, but the direction of the joystick does not work.  I just put a new hard drive and Windows 7 in my computer.
  The joystick works well in Flight Simulator 2.  Everything worked OK on Windows xp.

  2. open the control panel.
  3. double click on the link of game controllers.
  4. search and unique click on your joystick in the list of controllers. If your game controller is not listed, make sure that it is properly fixed and functional.
  5. with your gamepad highlighted, click on the properties button under the list of controllers.
  6. in the new pop-up window, click the button on the settings tab.
  7. follow all the instructions in the wizard that appears and click Finish when done.

• Qosmio X 770-00 X and Microsoft Flight Sim 2004 3D gaming

  I have a new laptop of X 770-00 X. So far, I was able to get videos to play in 3D using the video player from Toshiba. I have Microsoft Flight Sim 2004. The Nvidia control panel says that it is a compatible and will be in 3D.

  How to run 3D? The 3D on the function keys button, some call the multimedia buttons, does not work. There is no access key to activate 3D and I can find off the coast.

  Look forward to a good help.

  > I was able to get the videos to play in 3D using the Toshiba video player
  Have you watched the videos 2D to 3D, or you watch real 3D movies?
  To my knowledge the Toshiba video Player can playback 3D content and can convert the 2Dto3D but this conversion does not work for games

  > How to run 3D? The 3D on the function keys button, some call the multimedia buttons, does not work. There is no access key to activate 3D and I can find off the coast.

  I'm not familiar with the Microsoft Flight Simulator but I guess you should check the settings of the MFS for this.

  3D vision must also be enabled.
  This is possible in all programs-> nVidia-> 3D Vision-> Enable 3D Vision
  The installer takes you through of parameters to the top of your screen and configure 3D glasses.

  In addition the NVidia 3D play feature supports two resolutions: 1280 x 720 at 60 Hz and 1920 x 1080 at 24 Hz. When you want to play the game in 3D mode, you must set the resolution and refresh rates on the side game.

• Microsoft Sidewinder Precision Racing Wheel - Vista and Win7 compatibility

  I just bought a good condition Sidewinder Precision Racing Wheel from eBay. I didn't know he was as old as it is and I wanted to know if drivers exist that will offer all the features for the wheel. I saw messages in various forums of 2007 saying that no driver is for Vista which will offer all the features. Posts here I have a problem with the default Vista driver who has the throttle to 100% all the time - is not ideal.

  Having just bought a Dell computer with a free upgrade to Win7, I just saw this
  http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Hardware&p=Microsoft%20SideWinder%20Force%20Feedback%20Wheel%20Game%20Controller&v=Microsoft&uid=A16-00041&pf=0&pi=9&c=Mice%2C%20Keyboards%20%26%20Input%20Devices&sc=Game%20Controllers&os=32-bit
  say that this material is taken in charge, but when you follow the link to the software in is not what needs to be downloaded. It say that it is supported under Win7 makes me hope that driver for Vista situation has been resolved, but I see no mention of those on the web.

  Anyone can shed some light on this?

• Are there drivers Windows 7 for a Microsoft SideWinder Precision Pro and how to work?

  I have a MS SideWinder Precision Pro. I looked at the Windows 7 Compatibility Center and he said compatible. There is no link to a download of driver. On the internet, someone said Windows 7/Vista can no longer bear 'game ports' and you need a game-> USB adapter port. I don't have this kind of adapter. I also read that a USB adapter would not work because who only works with analog game controllers. Is this true?

  So I need one of these adapters? And where can I get the drivers for this gamepad win7?

  Hello

  USB adapter only works with analog game controllers, so that he's not helping.

  There is no driver Win7 scheduled this joystick. You can try to install the drivers in xp compatibility mode xp. Read this:

• Joystick Microsoft Sidewinder Precision 2 no load or not remains loaded.

  I have the Microsoft Sidewinder Precision 2 joystick.

  I am running Windows 7 (64-bit).

  The joystick is fine on Windows XP Home Edition. But, since the purchase of a new computer with Windows 7, the la manette controller game does not load half the time. When this happens, it stops during the Flight Simulator I followed all the steps you gave to another Member here who had problems with installing it and my problem persists.

  The manual says that if I meet this problem, I should: let the USB plug into the port, turn off the computer, put the USB plug into a different port, restart the computer. I do this and the joystick is fine in the case of game controllers, but, during a robbery of the SIM joystick suddenly stops working, (i.e. no entrance to the plane of sim) and does NOT appear in the game controllers folder. (Microsoft Sidewinder Central/Control Panel)

  What should I do now?

  Thank you

  Ironically, I dragged my old 2 precision last night to see if it worked in Win7-64.

  Initially, he did not work at all. As it was long out of warranty, I opened it, gave the printed circuit, a brush to remove chips and checked the different connections. Reconnected to a hub external (just in case), and Win7 he picked up a fine. There are screws under each of the feet, which has just taken off.

  The intermittent problem that you described, it could be a similar problem. The ' stick is pretty bulletproof, but not completely free from dust and dirt penetration.

• How to install MS Sidewinder Precision Pro Joystick on Win7 computer?

  Is it possible to install the controller MS Sidewinder Precision Pro (USB Version) on a computer of Windows7.  It works great on XP and Vista, but I can't install the drivers on a computer with Win7.  I get an error message "not something compatable" and a code 43.  I would really appreciate help here because I love this joystick.  Thank you

  Thank you Syed V, sorry for replying late but lost my DSL connection for a few days.  After reading your message I will try each of your suggestions.  I plugged the stick, crankded machine Win7 again and curiously, this time loaded Win7 drivers and the stick works fine.  I have no idea why it worked this time and not the other 5 times I tried.  I tried the normal way, I tried to load the drivers in compatibility mode, as an admin, etc..  Nothing has worked.  At the start I kept getting the message that this device has a known compatibility issue and they gave me the message Code 43.  In Device Manager, he has appeared as an unknown device.  I have nothing worked.

  Then today, he loaded the drivers automatically at startup of Win7.  Very strange.

  Thanks a lot for the good adivice.  I might have to use the next time on another Win7 machine.
