Thanks for the help.
I was thinking more along the lines of disconnecting one controller and connecting the other one.
The problem with this is that, apparently, I have to uninstall the driver of the old pad and install the driver of the new one and calibrate every time i switch joystics.
Any way to get around the driver problem?
Sorry, I'm not sure how to get around it, but when I said "XP might have extented the limit to the driver level, too", I was guessing XP makes sure the hardware problem doesn't happen by refusing to install
drivers of incompatable joystick hardware in the same port at the same time? But I don't have XP, so I can't test it. I glanced the windowsXP web site but could not find any help there.
I know in winMe/98/95, I could unplug one 'stick and plug in another like you want to, but XP is more strict in drivers sharing resources (one reason it doesn't crash as much
)
Can anybody with XP test this out?
