I'm just surprised that my Microsoft Sidewinder Precision 2 joystick seems
not to work in Vista x64. I plug the USB and nothing happens, it doesn't
detect it. Is any way to have it to work? In Win98 and Win XP I had no
problem with it. I didn't even need a driver, was automatically detected.
Now, it's like plugging a dead pile of junk.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll keep it in mind if I'm ever out
shopping for a joystick.

I'm not sure that it will work with Vista 64 bit. What does the Microsoft
Hardware site say?
