Cheers Dwight. Sunday, September 14, PM. No, unfortunately I have looked for a driver all over the web for VISTA , thought this would be a simple job for Microsoft and thought one of their employees would read this.

Someone said try running the game in XP mode while using vista, but I have not tried that as it is easier to use the other machine. Monday, September 15, PM. Wednesday, November 12, PM. I have the same problem. In the last summer i need to buy a new pc and it comes only with vista. When a connect my wheel, it didn't work I call for Microsoft Portugal, and they said that haven't more support for this product.

I'm thinking to process Microsoft Portugal, because i can't use their hardware with their sorftware!! Monday, December 22, PM. Same problem here with the Sidewinder FF wheel usb. Under XP the two pedals are combined and become one axis. Unfortunately the pedals become useless in FlightSimulators since you cannot use them as rudder-pedals.

Also certain race games require "Combined Axis". Both fantastic products! Now I keep using xp for everything, not using Vista at all, I don't like to reboot everytime I need my pedals! Sunday, April 26, PM. Saturday, July 18, AM. The problem is vista x64 which has a different driver without the option to combine the axis.

I think for Microsoft it's old stuff not worth any effort any more. But this wheel is of high quality and I refuse to buy another because of this.

So let's keep XP for the next 10 years Proposed as answer by anderoii Friday, September 18, AM. Monday, July 20, PM. Yeah, I've supported Microsoft over the years against the haters, but while I'm not a hater yet, I won't speak up for these guys again.

I have this wheel, and I bought the xbox wheel a year ago, and they had vague promises on there that they would release drivers down the road for PC for the wheel to enable force feedback its not and I hoped dual axis for the pedals.

Nothing so far. Just like windows ultimate, they've got your money on promises that they never intended to keep, or maybe did, but whoever intended to left the company and MS could care less what you want. Screw em. I won't be upgrading to 7 and I'm through buying their stuff.

Its long past time where you have to buy MS stuff to use the computer effeciently. Vista should last me for some time now. Saturday, August 1, AM. Same problem over here. I want drive cars usinf a steering wheel, not a silly mouse Anyone any solution? XP professional user. Thursday, August 20, PM. Friday, September 18, AM. Thanks Microsoft now with the help your incompetible!

Tuesday, September 22, AM. Good news! Plug n play, too. Thursday, September 24, AM. Same problem under Windows 7: The two pedals have seperate axis which cannot be combined. These pedals are useless in flight simulators where the combined axis control the rudder :- Why is it so difficult to keep the functionality that was present in Windows XP????? Tuesday, October 27, AM. Cheers what drivers are u guys using on W7?

Saturday, November 7, PM. I had the same issue when I decided to use it again with my son to play Formula 1 Racing. Some said it works under Windows7, but were not clear if the pedals work fine and if they used any specific driver. Problem is, it did NOT work.

As to the 2nd suggestion by Pacesetter, I did check the Device Manager to see if i could update the driver, but for the life of me, it is NOT obvious which device may be the one i need to update. The device is not listed under Sound, video and game controllers, and although i presume that it my be ONE of the Human Interface Devices, I'm hesitant to update them all for fear of ruining any or all that are actually working.

Any further suggestions? Thanks in advance. This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread.
