Sidewinder 2 doesnt work for some reason on Windows 7. It worked last year but today it doesnt recognize anything at all. Tried all usb-ports, restarted pc several times.

How do I fix this? I cant find any driver that isnt a virus. But it shouldnt need drivers, last year it also was just plug&play.

Mine all work fine and non of them have buttons on or need plugging in to a USB.

Return it and get a new one if you can OP.

Can you get it to work on another computer? Sounds like a messed up cable.

I have the sidewinder force feedback 2 and I found a zip of the installer CD somewhere. You might still be able to find it, I read tons of ms support forums before I found it. I use mine for elite dangerous on windows 10.

I used my sidewinder joystick to play Need for speed 2 on windows 95.

Better than keyboard

Shit was cash. x and y axis for forward and back, and hat and other buttons for force powers.
