E Sky 0905A Problem with XP

[coconuts]

I just got a new esky 0905a Simulator and I'm running XP.

My system doesn't recognize the esky and when I go through control panel to choose one it comes up with this error:


Your gameport or gameport drivers are not properly configured.
Please consult the Device manager.

All of my USB ports work fine with printers, cameras and storage devices....I read that this was a PnP device, but haven't a clue what to look for or do.


Thank you in advance for any help.

Don't have the answer for you, but this may help you get started.
I use a 905A W/ XP (home edition) & it works fine.
Now in XP's control panel, under the game controllers group, your 905a should be listed as “ADC”.
The Device Manager is found by opening the "System" group (also found in the control panel), & then selecting the "hardware" tab. close to the top of that tab, you should see a button labeled "Device Manager". Click it, and it should generate a drill down view of the hardware linked to your computer. Expand the "Human Interface Devices" group. Click on the "HID-Compliant consumer control device". Once open, click on the "driver" tab.
Mine shows the driver version to be "5.1.2600.2180", Driver date 7/1/2001
There's an "update" button clicking it, should get you the latest & greatest driver.

Good Luck

Tnx Jim
