I am having problems too. Here is my mail to Gravis: I have just installed the full install of Win98 on a clean HD and then installed the new drivers for the Gamepad Pro and I have a problem: The Gamepad direction control will not go up & left (northwest). I have two controllers and it is the same. All other buttons appear to be working normally. I have a AMD K6-300, 64 Megs SDRAM, Mediavision PAS-16 Soundcard, and a Shuttle HOT-569 motherboard. Bear in mind that when I put my other HD in that all of this works just fine, so it is definitely a problem with the new drivers. Let me know if you need and further info. Thanks...
