Is there any way to make the sidewinder software work on Win 7 X64 now?

Wow - I've been using these sticks for a dozen years and I completely forgot they originally came with software. Do you need something the software does? If so, what's that? I haven't ever used the software.

The software enables you to adjust return-to-center tension and feedback forces.

You can do this with FEdit (Force Feedback (efects) Editor) - include in MS DirectX 8.1 SDK - download here:

If need map butons (of game GUI) use JoyToKey, SVMapper, XPadder...

I've tried FEDIT several times over the last years. But I failed to save any changes I made to the .ff files.

Could be a loose connector. Only one way to find out - open it up.
There are manuals for that on the Internet.

Hi all,

I'm trying to fix up my poor neglected ffb2 stick, and I think the twist spring is broken on one side. The spring is straighter and seems slightly shorter on one side. I'm fairly sure it's engaged in the stick properly but the spring return only works in one direction.

Anyone out there have a spare, or know where I might track one down? I thought if someone had 'locked' their rudder twist they might still have the spring...

Any suggestions welcome!

Cheers.
