gameport in windows 2003

trance1meister · Oct 19, 2003, 12:59 AM

the driver for the gameport won't install under windows server 2003
it says:

"the driver is not intended for this platform"

any chances of an update to make it work?

"the driver is not intended for this platform" Can you ignore that message and go on to see if it work or you get stucked there? I suppose windows 2003 is not supported yet, because I read somewhere else in the fourm that Eugene hadn't teste windows server 2003 yet.

you simply don't need the version of the joystick driver bundled with the kX driver set
(since it is not a =real= driver, just a .inf file -- we don't provide our own joystick driver)
you can either install Creative driver or use the default m$ driver for your joystick

the strange thing is, I already tried the creative gameport driver that comes with the OS, but it reports the same thing?! which is crazy!
