This is odd, as my Gravis Gamepad has been working wonderfully. Do make sure you install the joystick driver, and then make sure you tell the driver you are using a four button gamepad (it can't autodetect the joystick). You can do this from the Control Panel. Oh, for my joystick port, I'm using the built in one off a Logitech Soundman Wave. I have heard of problems from people with multiple game ports on their machines, even when one is disabled. -- Ben Combee, CAD Software Engineer, Perl proponent, RC Cola drinker Motorola Paging Products Group, Strategic Semiconductor Operation--Austin com...@ptsg-austin.sps.mot.com +1 512 891 7141 Pager #897141 - Austin
