:wave: Hello ... I installed win7 32bit in order to use a gameport on my sound card.  I found a website where a guy created a package that would allow people to use the game port on win7 32 bit.  I downloaded it, and I figure out how to install the gameport with the package  ... by going to the device manager ... highlighting the c media card(CM8737) and clicking on action and add legacy hardware ... so I was able to install the drivers, now I got game controller in my control panel and "standard game port" is showing where it should be under sounds, but I got an "!" next to it and this message in the properties ...

Quote: Windows cannot determine the setting for this device. Consult the documentation that came with this device and use the resource tab to set the configuration(Code 34)


The problem is I don't know how to configure it. Anyone here know how? :headscratch:

From what I gather I have to get the configuration for my CH Product Combat Stick and Throttle ... thing is I don't know where to get it so far :no: .  I contracted CH Products, but I know they don't support the analog hardware, but I am hoping they can at least tell me how to configure them.  If anyone here knows of anything please post. :wave:

:wave: Well unfortunately I could not get the modified drivers for the gameport to work for me in 32 bit win7 :smashcomp: .  I read where it worked for others, but it did not work for me. :headscratch:   CH Product instead of telling me they don't know how to configure the analog, he went through a spill about how they don't support analog joysticks or hacked drivers ... they were totally useless. :killcomp: My FX8120 is faster than the i3 and all I want to do is run FS9 and since the FX8120 can handle FSX it will be sweet with FS9.

Therefore I am selling the mobo and i3 and installing XP 32bit back on my old mobo.  For those of you in a similar situation I'm sorry ... maybe you will have luck with those drivers and 32bit win7.  It's solved for me with my old hardware, but I won't mark this solved but NO SOULTION
:no:
