How to Connect SideWinder Force Feedback for Best Performance |
ID: Q174433
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SideWinder Force Feedback Pro, version 1.0
- Microsoft SideWinder Force Feedback Wheel, version 1.0
SUMMARY
To get the best performance from the SideWinder Force Feedback game controller, the device should be plugged directly into your sound or game card while your computer is turned off.
If you connect the controller through another device (such as a game device, a MIDI device, or a switch box), force feedback effects may work intermittently or not at all. If you experience this problem when you connect the controller through another device, disconnect that device and plug the SideWinder Force Feedback game controller directly into your game port.
If you connect the SideWinder Force Feedback game controller to a single SideWinder game pad that is already connected to your computer, you may be able to hot plug the game controller without losing the functionality of the controller.
However, you do receive the best performance from the controller if you connect the SideWinder Force Feedback game controller directly to the computer while the computer is turned off.
