Q10:
already have one Saitek controller
installed using the SST software. I now want to purchase an
additional Saitek controller - do I have to install the software
again?
A10 : No you don't need
to. If you are using Windows 98 or ME then simply plug your
second controller in and it should install automatically.
If you are running Windows 2000 or XP then plug the controller
in, let Windows install it using its own drivers and then
open up Control Panel and open up the System icon at the bottom.
Click Hardware at the top of the window that comes up and
then click Device Manager.
Click the plus sign next to Human Interface
Devices and you might see a couple of listings called HID
Compliant Game Controller or USB Human Interface Device. Right
click on it and choose Update Driver from the drop-down list
of options.
On the window that comes up select Install
from a list or specific location and then click Next.
On the next window select Don't search.
I will choose the driver to install and then click
Next.
On the next screen you should have two options,
one of which is the name of your controller *. Select it and
then click Next, then click Continue Anyway on the Windows
driver signing warning and then finally finish when it has
finished installing.
You should now have an icon for your controller
next to your clock, provided you have installed the Advanced
option on the install.
* If the name of your controller
wasn't there then click Have Disk and point it to the C:\Program
Files\Saitek\Drivers\Inf directory and click OK - you should
then have the option of your controller there for you. |
