force feedback pro with win xp

I've just upgraded computers and want to use my FF Pro
with CFS, IL2, etc. Unfortunately, my new computer has no
game port to plug this thing into, and using a game port-
to-usb adapter doesn't get recognized. Any options?

Thank You,

Majk

Either purchase are a separate Soundcard with a game port included or a new
USB joystick.

I am surprised it did not come with an adaptor for use with USB. I bought a
freestyle pro gamepad and in the box there was an adaptor so i could plug it
into a USB socket
