View Full Version : Sound Card conflicts with USB Joystick???

Hi All,

I've got a Ch products Flight Sim pro Yoke connected to my system. This
is a USB device.

I'm using the new simulator fs2004 when I noticed that the yoke input is
jerking all over the place in the simulator. Randomly going full right
then back to center or pulling all the was back and jerking forward in a
spastic way.

After several hours trouble shooting this problem I found that if I
remove my Sound Card (a SB Live Value) the problem instantly corrects
itself.

The question now is: How can I put my sound card in without screwing up
my Yoke?

I also tried another sound card: an SB Live 5.1 which seemed worse if
anything.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is my system:

Asus A7V KT133 chipset
512 mb ram
Geforce2 ti pro w/ 64 mb

Other cards are:
Ethernet card
Via USB 2.0 card ( I tried removing this as well but no effect)
Firewire card

I also have a USB keyboard and 2 USB pointing devices. But I have tried
with only the keyboard and the yoke and still have this problem.


Thanks

Zander

Did you try a different PCI slot for the SBLive? If you are not using
Serial Ports then disable them in the Bios and free
up two IRQ's. Com1 and Com2
