For some reason my joystick is recognized by AH in the setup area.(logitech wingman iinterceptor digital) The only thing showing is my stupid mouse.(which btw i might add is very hard to fly with) The logitech profile doesn't seem to load up either when the game starts.....I have the latest drivers form Logitech yet to no avial.

This is my first day in AH and its not off to a good start....

I'll look into the problem some more I have the same joystick and I haven't had any problems with it. I do think it is impossible to import your profiles to use in Aces High and you will need to setup your joystick config in Aces High itself.

Bahtz, what version of DirectX do you have? I would recommend getting 7.0a as there are USB issues with earlier versions.

There is also a patch out for Win98SE if you have an AMD CHip on a VIA chipset mainboard and need USB support. I had all kinds of problems until I patched it.

Ok.....i was sure I already had Directx 7a..but i reinstalled it just to be sure. It didn't help. This joystick isn't USB either, and I also have my Thrustmaster Elite rudder pedals hooked up to it. Both of these work in Warbirds. I have a Duron 600 chip. Asus motherboard, 128 megs of ram etc. So my system should be able to handle the game at least. The only thing i can think of is if there is a compatibility propblem with Windows....i'm running Win98 too thow
