Hi there!

I got CH throttle gameport (not Pro) and i tried to document myself in your forum but i can't realize how i do some workaround (my primary language isn't english and is a major problem for me).

I downloaded some stuff from your site, booted on DOS and i did work jcenter, Y axis working on B-joystick. I couldn't program any buttons with chsetup tho.
Anyway i don't care about programming buttons. I just want to see the throttle axis working.

Is there anyway to get into the life my stand alone CH throttle gameport over Windows? I love it, but USB version are expensive and very rare down here (Argentina).

Any help will be appreciate.


Thanks you in advance.

No stick connected to it.
I got a M$ Sidewinder Precision II USB. (but i secretly wish a Combastick and rudder pedals) :)

Thanks.

Hi Ala11_Puma,

hmmm, Try giving this topic a try I posted about reseting the CH devices firmware http://www.ch-hangar.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1159 . Also, the gameport products weren't designed to be mixed with USB and may pose a problem in windows. I have had success running both the gameport and USB fighterstick while working on the bootdisk, but I am not sure everyone maybe this lucky with their rig setup :( Let me know if this helps, if not we will have to look more in depth in the matter and hopefully resolve the issue :)

Hi!

I finally got CH Throttle working on Windows XP and IL2/FB/PF.

I just found some guy down here who was selling a Radio Shack's gameport/USB adapter.

It works really good if you set it up selector key as wheel and unplug throttle keyboard bypass every time you boot. Anyway my PC is up 24/7 weekly :).

I will try to program throttle booting with DOS diskette. We'll see...



El Puma.
