To answer my own question. I dusted off my SB 5.1 Live (needed a game port) and my Microsoft Force Feedback Wheel, setup a second monitor and bingo. I am Crusin' Exotica with a steering wheel and pedals. Its 2am, so I will have to continue testing later but its pretty safe to say this beats the keyboard by a long shot. Its nice to have the ATI 9600 Pro card too, just plug in the second monitor and tell it to send out a signal. Because I have a pull out keyboard I have no real way to mount the wheel in front of my main monitor so this is my temp solution. Will try and take a pic later today.
