IceTrey47 0 Posted February 2, 2000 I would like to know if there is any way to make your Microsoft Sidewinder Gamepad work with Windows 2000 (i have build 2195) I have tried downloading that little Configsw.exe file but it does absolutely nothing ... maybe I am doing something wrong, but I would appreciate any help you could provide me with. Thanks Trey Share this post Link to post
Beavis 0 Posted February 2, 2000 Go to control panel; double click on "Game controllers" click on "add" scroll down to the bottom of the list; You will see the Microsoft sidewinder (auto detect) Double click on it. Now it should detect it and you should be able to use it. Good luck. I have been using mine for a while now with no problems. Share this post Link to post
brain_net 0 Posted February 3, 2000 About the SideWInder.... i tried downloading the software for the gamepad from microsoft.. ( the profile activator and stuff ) but when i try to run the compressed exe file, it says that i can't start "Setup" is there anyway to expand the "Exe" compressed without actullay running it?

MarksmanX 0 Posted February 3, 2000 Brain_net, if you have winzip right click on the executable and tell winzip to uncompress it Share this post Link to post
