I am trying to use X-Plane 8.4 woth a Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 joystick. All the controls work except for the throttle and obviously force feedback itself. As expected there is no driver on the MSoft site. A number of challenges may lead to expired SideWinder Force Feedback 2 Joystick (as well as other driver), and the effected personal computer is in danger of becoming slower or perhaps rendered ineffective. I installed my old Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 on our new laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium with no trouble at all. All I had to do was connect it to the laptop & turn the laptop on.

Uploader Notes

Isn't it humongously annoying that Microsoft doesn't make their drivers available for download? What do they have to gain? After all, this software is useless without the hardware..

Well, anyway. After a lot of futile web searches I found the original CD on my shelf, and decided to spare

others a lot of trouble and help Microsoft support its' own products.

Here it is, right off the CD

Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 joystick software version 4.0. My FF2 works just fine in W2k pro with this software and the VIA USB patch. Just follow the instructions in the MS Knowledge Base article and it'll work.

Enjoy!
