Gimme Gimme Gimme, my CH sticks get alot of nose bounce, I have  a dedicated CH game card too.  I replace the pots about an avg. of once every 3 weeks, lub helps for awhile, but inevitably the nose bounce comes back.

ANY info he gave you is mucho appreciado!

That's really good news SaintAW!!!

I'll follow up with a full email later Ripsnort. But my first thoughts are that it sounds like your either need to use the programs at Stickworks, CHJOY98, or a gamecard.

Using win95 or 98?

Yes, Rip, get the PDPI. I have one and used it with the Combatstick, works real nice  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif). I also tried a Gamecard 3 Auto and the Thrustmaster ACM, and the PDPI kicks both their butts. Unfortunatley, my ForceFx I'm using now doesn't work with the PDPI, and they won't return emails about possible fix, or if they are working on it  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif). But fortunately, the ForceFx drivers are real nice and steady, and there is no spiking in Windows, even tho it uses the same pots as the Combatstick! To bad they (FoceFx drivers) conflict with the com port, which causes me to lock up every 1 hr and 10 mins when flying online  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/frown.gif). The price we pay to use controls we like the feel of hehe..........

rip  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

think about that you need an ISA slot for the pdpi. i have an pdpi and cannot use it anymore since i bought a new mobo without isa slots.

Ibreh has a good point. The CH USB Fighterstick(waiting for this one myself)/Pro Throttle and Rudder Pedals would be better. Mabye Ibreh will sell you his PDPI cheaper than a new one since it is useless to him now  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif).

PDPI will NOT work with the CH drivers.  There is a way to make it work with the Combatstick, but it cannot be made to duplicate all functions.

I tried to make one work for a year (with many calls to PDPI and others), then finally gave the darn thing away.
