Yes I tried other usb ports, and no power usb hub just plughed into the back of the computer, it does work in windows all buttons, hats, sliders, and switches. I am using there sst softwear and drivers. I had to redown load the game because I now am running vista home premium and I also had to re down load the driver and programing for the stick.
It worked great the first night. Now nothing. The game sees it and I have my flight axis but no buttons or hats work.
