Here is how I try to hook my stuff up, but the DOS program never sees the stick...am I plugging it all in incorrectly?

So does this mean you'll be terrorising the skies in Warbirds once more? ;)

My game port knowledge is a bit rustly but I think you only need the Pro Throttle to have a keyboard pass-through. The Fighterstick pass-through is only if you don't have the Pro Throttle connected to it.

MichaelCHProd,
You are correct sir. I downloaded the old PDF files and was looking at them and it said that exactly.
I shouldn't complain, I love CH products, I won this stick and throttle while at a Dallas Warbird Convention many moons ago. I have only replaced the POTS 1 time in the pedals the rest is original .....thats saying allot.
I have tried other USB sticks and well, let's just say they all suck compared to my old CH stuff.
I am very gratefull for this board and the help you guys have given me in getting what I call, the best HOTAS system available, another go;)
If the USB versions weren't so dang expensive I would probably buy a set :P

bnz1944, how did you get your rig to work? I program my Pro Throttle and Fighterstick in the boot disk program, and everything checks out in its test program, but once in windows the buttons and hats only output odd symbols. Ideas, anyone?

Toffe,

What verison of windows are you using, and also what kind/brand of keyboard are you running (USB, PS2, etc..)

I use Windows XP Professional, and use a Microsoft natural keyboard (the cable has both a USB and PS/2 plug, both have to be plugged in).

Toffe,

Have you tried using a standard ps2 keyboard?

Wahay! Everything's working now - unplugging the USB plug with the PC off solved the problem, so I'm back in business. How's the mouse support patch project going?

Toffe,

ahh its just going lol, I have been too too busy to get this stuff done, my friend took a look at it and so far it all seems to be working, I have to assemble it as an installable program then get it on here :D

I've not been able to play around with this over the last week as I'd thought :( But am I correct to udnertstand that are you able to program your throttle AND stick as you were using Speedkeys under win98??

Thanks, Ken
