Connecting Sidewinder Pro to laptop

airvine

Hi, I have just unpacked my joy stick after a couple of years. I used to use it with a Dell desktop running Windows 98. My laptop runs XP. I bought an adapter so that I could plug the joystick into one of the laptop's USB ports.

Might and Magic 7 works almost perfectly for me on windows xp pro. . . BUT the only way for me to play it is to skip the cutscense like the intro and stuff like that. . if i dont then the game hangs and i get a empty error message called smacker error or similar.

Video Card - BIOS conflict

markv

The system boots fine up till completion of the IDE discovery step. Then the board's speaker beeps continuously. The system will continue to boot fine into WinXP, just continuing to Beep. The only Beep Error Info on an Award BIOS is for Video Card error.

Is there a way of repairing Win2K?

packman

Is there a way of repairing Win2K? That's with SP4, incidentally. Is there some sort of repair function on the Win2K installation CD? I ask because I've hit a brick wall with a driver problem - an Epson flatbed scanner driver.
