    USB connector for an old Sidewinder FFB joystick?

    Thanks fellows for the options. Relic, you're right about the age of my joystick...I don't think USB was even invented when I bought around '95! I'm going to try Radio Shack to see if i can get what I need first. I'll keep your offer in mind if I still need to use my old printer and scanner instead of buying a new All-In-One unit. Thanks again for your input.

    USB connector for an old Sidewinder FFB joystick?

    Thanks, Relic for the quick comeback. I was afraid that is my best solution if a conversion cable is more than $20 bucks or so. I'm also looking to adapt my HP 722c printer and HP 5100c scanner and that will be about $35 bucks each. The lesson here is not to wait 10 years to update your system!!
  3. Hi folks! I'm new to this site and I wonder if anyone can tell me my options if I have an original Sidewinder FFB joystick with a game port connector that used to plug into the back of my SONY Vaio computer. I just bnought a new DELL XPS 400 MCE and of course it ony takes USB hookups. Where can I get a conversion plug to allow me to connect my joystick? Any help is appreaciated.
