Steering Wheels under NT4?

obelix
I'm currently running Racing Simulation 2 under NT4. It works fine, but to use a joystick is a little bit anoying. Does anyone know if, and how, it's possible to use a steering wheel? (Does not matter which one) I tried Saitek R4 already, but it was impossible to calibrate it.

WinNT4.0 and directX..........

Tord
What versions of directX are working on NT4. 0? Is there a controlpanel for directX delivered separately from the it? Does Accelerators with AGP port work on NT4. 0 without any necessary changes in HAL.

NT and Q3 SMP fps?!

Jason Pankiewicz
I got NT workstation 4. 0 running on my dual celeron system last night. I ran some timedemos in quake3 and was very disappointed. With r_smp 1 I get 2-5 fps LOWER than with r_smp 0 in any resolution, any graphics settings.

meener777
The autorun on the CD crashed instantly. Opening up the cd and run Setup manually in its own memory space completed the install. Running the game results in a log file being created with the following error: GAME: Could not read options Someone got Rainbow Six to run by copying registry settings from 95/98.
