Are you using a game card or a y-cable? If so, try removing the card/y-cable and
plugging your gamepad directly into the port on your computer. After I connected
mine directly, it worked fine.

I've encountered a lot of people who have had problems with their Gravis gamepad
in Win95. Has anyone had theirs work right away?

Curious,
Albert
