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.

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.

Hi, I have a problem in the installation, how to install acrobat 8.1 pro in 64-bit Windows 7 Enterprise is existing in Windows XP. I just want to transfer the license Adobe pro 8 Windows 7 64 bit. What is the procedure?
You need to install 8 AA on the new OS with your current S/N (the license allows 2 installs). After the installation, do all the updates if you expect any chance of 8 AA to run on the system. If the updates will be installed not in the menu help, then go to ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/ and install updates in the order. People seem to have been successful with 32 - bit systems and some have reported success with a 64 bit system. After installation, print something to the Adobe PDF printer to make sure it works. If this works, you should be in good shape as printing treat the bottleneck. There is a solution, but you shouldn't have it.
If all works well, then go back to the old machine and disable this installing and uninstalling. Don't forget that your configuration is not supported by Adobe. It seems with every new version of Windows, MS seeks to make the user to upgrade the other hardware and software for compatibility. There may be legitimate reasons for this action, but the game just seems to be Ms.
