NEEDED: Sidewinder Dual Strike Drivers
« on: March 01, 2007, 01:37:39 am »
Since they're not supported any longer, M$ doesn't have them on their site.  Can anyone help me out here - need to reconfig the keys and can't without the original CD or drivers.   :'(

email or a link would be nice.     :cheers:

I think the latest drivers are"Microsoft SideWinder Dual Strike 5.1.2600.0" but I've looked for 1/2 an hour and they seem to be non existent on the web for free ??? (Didn't know that was possible  :P) Some1 with a cd is your best bet...

 Ok now have you tried to actually download it ? I'm sure he did a Google for it too...

Never fear I've got it, It will warn you it is for  WIN 98, but every thing I read said it's fine on XP.

I can't guarantee It will work, I'd try it myself but I don't own one....

Indeed.  Nothing on Google about it, nor in any newsgroups.  The link that other guy provided is the first place I had checked - dead.

I did manage to find some generic Sidewinder drivers but they don't support the DS.

Thanx for this, I'll have to DL it tonight when I get home. . .  I'm running 98 on my MAME box so that should do me fine!   :cheers:

EDIT:  Worked fine in 98 - thanx again!
