OK, I’m using Windows 98. I broke my old joystick, so a friend gave me an old RaiderPro Digital SV-251 joystick (with a gameport connection, not a USB connection). Windows doesn’t seem to have a built in driver for it, and when I looked on line, I only found two sites offering drivers. The first, an Interact site (the maker of the joystick) charges $5. The other, some German site has the drivers, but when I downloaded it, the file was corrupt. Does anybody know of any generic freeware driver or drivers that will support this joystick? I tried to check to make sure that the joystick is being read correctly and will work in DOS, but the only DOS programs I can test the joystick on, are on a removable D: drive, and when I go to DOS only mode, I can’t access the drive.
Anyway, I E-mailed the guy who gave me the joystick, to see if he has the drivers, but I’m posting here, just in case he doesn’t. Thanks.
Aaaah drivers
Here’s two places I found them. Not sure if either will work.
Yeah, that’s the one that charges money
And the link to the driver at
Doesn’t work.
But thanks anyway.
You got an odd one, that’s for sure. All I could find was some links that seemed to be for DOS drivers that didn’t work anyway and a guy having the same problem as you. Sorry, man.
Have you tried the one from driverguide.com? The only comment on it mentions install problems, but it might be worth a shot.
There’s also an update for it.
Thanks, the links worked. When I try to install the file from the first link, Windows wants a file called, I think I coppied it right, iaijoyft.sys which I can’t find, but I e-mailed the guy who posted the first file and hopefully he’ll have that file too.
