I forgot to mention, the software I have for the J/S is ver 3.0 & Win XP wont let me reload it, it says that it is not compatible with XP, I have search the net & the only upgrade is 3.2 & that is for Win 98 & 2000. I am going into hospital for three weeks from tomorrow so I will look forward to your helpful thoughts & suggestions, any help is greatly appreciated. The hospital is for my Arthritis, knees/spine & elbows my wife reckons if I was a horse they would take me out back & shoot me so I hope I come home feeling like a horny Lil devel . Cheers cdsam

I have done all what you have suggested, still no luck, I go into control panel, click game controller, that tells me that MS s\w force feedback pro is ok. I then click properties & all buttons/throttle/rudder/ top veiw etc are all ok. I then open FS2002, go to settings, make sure that joystick is ticked enable, it shows calibrate J/S in light greenish colour, I click that & it goes through the same things as properties in game controller. The tab under calibrate J/S in FS2002 is not highlighted, & when I open assignments only key board has assignments Bloody puters, cantankerous like woman. Cheers cdsam
