 * Microsoft Windows XP Professional

This article was previously published under Q327227



SYMPTOMS
When you click Game Controllers in Control Panel, there may not be a Forces tab on the Game Controllers dialog box, and there may not be any other commands that allow you to turn on (enable), turn off (disable), or configure the feedback forces.

The stick movement and control buttons all work as expected.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the Game Controllers dialog box in Windows XP Control Panel does not contain a Forces tab.



RESOLUTION
To test the forces function, use the controller in a game that supports forces through direct input.
