Hi,
1.Which is the operating system installed on the computer?
2.Was the feature working properly earlier?
Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback Wheel has no driver for Windows Vista and Windows 7 provided by Microsoft. Therefore, some functions may miss,
very possibly including the problems you encountered.
I suggest you to install the XP driver in compatibility mode and check if it helps.
Follow these steps:
1. Right-click on the installation file and select properties.
2. Now click on the compatibility tab.
3. Under compatibility mode, check "Run this program in compatibility mode for".
4. From the drop down menu, select Windows XP(service pack 2).
O-the sweet feel of a Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback lets see if I can be of some help. there could be any number of things going on but I'm going to give this a try. have you checked the settings in Flight Simulator 2004 seems to me that I remember a check box that said disable force feedback make sure that is unchecked. also in the settings for your controller there is a box that says enable force feedback make sure that is checked. then make sure if you are using a firewall like zone alarm you are in gaming mode because this used to give me major headaches with my system to the point I had to detach from the internet and shut down my firewall to play my games. if this doesn't work you may have to reinstall the drivers for the sidewinder this is the last easy option and it should repair any broke links and reset itself into your system. Please let me know how this helped if you need more Ideas just contact me.
You need the USB adapter if you want to use it in Vista. They are very hard to come by, as most of them don't seem to be compatible with any of the Sidewinder products. This is your only option and not guaranteed. The adapters are about £10.

You may have to install or update drivers Most of the

a free registration then search for the driver you need download it in a format
