Hey Guys

when i plug in my old microsoft sidewinders joystick into the back of my geforec 2 mx 400 card and try and set up the joystick in the control panel windows always just reboots on me and doesnt install it. Even if i select some crappy generic joystick and click ok the whole computer just restarts......any ideas?

Mmm, plugging a joystick into a graphics card :blueteam Have you tried www.microsoft.com/hardware for the latest drivers or possibly Windows Update.
