I've recently aquired Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004, and to play it, I dug out my old Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback Pro joystick. I installed it in Windows XP, and everything seemed to work - it installed correctly, and the Force Feedback worked (at least appeared to).
However, when I tried to play Flightsim, the stick became all "slushy", wouldn't center itself, and had very poor precision.
A search on the Internet told me that Windows XP doesn't support the Force Feedback Pro. Is there a way around this, or do I have to invest in a new joystick?
