I own the wheels and pedals named microsodt sidewinder.

I didnt use it for about a year and now im just feeling
like it, but i have XP on my pc.

The installation cd gave me an error that my OS is not
working with this sidewinder.


Can i use it on XP with a driver?

Where can i download the driver?

If i cant, i should just throw the sidewinder away? it is
not usable anymore?!

Please help me.
Thanks,
Tamir.

Try this...
Goto the Game Controller Control Panel
Then Add, Microsoft Sidewinder (auto-detect)...


Please note that any Profiling software that came with the gameport hardware
won't work as that was not designed for Windows XP. There are currently no
plans for updates.
