Getting back into the sim, dusted off my microsoft sidewinder FF wheel and found that the buttons arent supported with Windows XP, so a new wheel purchase is in my future.

I take it from these posts that this may be the wheel to get next to a TSW? Just concerned because I am far from a smart computer person, if I run into problems with the software I am SOL.

Before you buy a new wheel, please note that the drives from the original disk will work on Windows XP. Install drivers first, then plug in wheel. THEY WILL NOT WORK ON VISTA. At least, that's was the reason I told my wife when I got the new wheel.

ok, i will try installing the drivers first. I think I did plug the wheel in first before I loaded the software. After googling it a bit, I saw several posts by people saying the wheel doesnt work with XP & Vista, so I was ready to give up. Will definitely try this tonight. Thanks again.

I am looking for a new wheel as well. I will check NewEgg and post the price up here for everyone to see.

Here is the link to the page on Newegg.com @ $265.99 its a little more than I wanted to spend.

Newegg.com - Logitech 963416-0403 G25 Racing Wheel - PC Game Controllers

Does anyone have any suggestions on newer wheel setups that are a little less money with decent quality? The one I am using now is a Logitech Force Feedback from way back in the beginning.

Does anyone have any experience with the Thrustmaster Rally GT Pro setup?
