SpacePilot not Recognized

3DX Dudes,

Hello..

I am currently using a SpaceTraveler (works fine) and a spaceBall 5000 (serial, works fine) and I am trying to switch over to a SpacePilot.

I have upgraded to the newest software and it still works with my SpaceTraveler but when I plug my spacepilot in it will not run the driver. When I look in the device manager. Under the other devices (question mark) I see SpacePilot.

I have tried the START=PROGRAMS=3DCONNECTION=3DXWARE=START DRIVER. This still does not work.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi mitchi

Unfortunately I didn't exactly understand your problem.

Does Windows (the "Hardware Manager") recognize the device?

Well,

on XP if I right click on My Computer and click Manage... then open the Device Manager.. This is where I see the Question Mark.

I think we are saying the same item. The computer recognizes the SpacePilot but looks for another driver. "Windows has found new hardware"

Puzzled....

Mitch

Hi mitchi

Please read the following post there I described how Windows should see the device.
