RandyT i run WinXP SP2 so i dont think its a help for you :/
But i can suggest you try different things while calibrating and see
what changes ingame. Unfortunatley this guns are not plug & play
made, too many different variables ( ie. screensize, standing point)
But i think its still O.K. for this price compared to others PC Lightguns (what others ? lol ;)
I forgett to told you, in Mame like others suggested, if possible try a
Gun calibration in that game you play too (F2). In Zero Point you cant calibrate
but you can test how the gun work, i used this Info for this Game to change the
way i calibrate in Wingun.
I'm not 100% sure, but i doubt you will get one calibration for all games.
On the other side, it took not much longer then 1min to calibrate for each game.

Fuzzybear had a good idea, we should made a sticky thread about what emulator
is used succesfully in combination with this Topgun, it would help everyone and
safe alot time.

I might need the hub anyway since the recoil seems to kill the device (Windows loses and then finds the USB device again).

I get the feeling it's more a gimmick rather than something I would actually use. Anyway, my kid loves it so I guess that means it's money well spent nomatter what I think of it :)

I use an extention USB device, and yes hehe i deactivated the recoil, it was fun at start
but got very anoying fast for me ;) ...but my Girfriend likes it grrrrrr. and she likes
to
play even with the laser pointer ! *MEGA-sigh* ;)

My driver do work in win98. The only thing that is stil broken is the on-the fly update of the settings. You have to unplug/replug or stop/Start the driver after you update the settings (even moving the switch away from guncon2 mode and back will work).

@Patrickl
You surely have something worng with the installation, it's impossible the driver does not detect the guns. Probably to much dirvers on the USB messed your windows up.

Hmm well if the slowdown/lag is on the xbox that is poor (I've only tried PC). Although the video on their site for Xbox looks problem free.....

I've just played some zeropoint and while I'm not brilliant I can pass loads of the stage, which I really don't think you can do in that game if you have any lag....

Silver:
Update.

TimeCrisis actually works great, I've previously said that the aiming is way off, but I'd missed the 'advanced' ingame calibration.

There is a standard calibration, which does not help, and an advanced calibration (6 steps) with Time crisis that got the aiming spot on. Hold down service button and hit the test switch to get to a menu for standard or advanced, select advanced, then go through each area, opting to calibrate at every stage. Nice and accurate now!

As far as I know this only leaves 3 games in mame that dont play properly with the guns. Jurassic park, Operation Wolf 3 and BeastBusters. All the rest will play great if you either go through the ingame calibration or use the modded build. Although if anyone finds more, please post.
