What kind of joystick for CoD ?

@ Feuerfalke

it looks effectively more simple, but I've read somewhere that with that kind of adapter, the stick is working, but without force feedback, which is even worse than a standard joystick (in my opinion).

At least this kind of adapter works with Win XP 32bits, but for Win 7 64 bits, I am not sure.

I am trying to get the best of both worlds : MS FFB1 with force feedback and Win 7 64 bits

As Artist already posted, you can't keep FFB with an I/O-chip either. So this is definitely the cheaper alternative.

If you want FFB and a modern OS, you should check out the Logitech 940.

No way the Daniel K. drivers can work with Win7 64-bits ?

Since the question gameport X 64 bits OS (Vista and Seven) date from Vista launch an no solution come, I think is lost of time insist in try... Only Daniel K work with this issue - and under pressure from Creative to forget this matter...

Feuerfalke,

Gameport USB adapter dont work well for M$ FF PRO - this stick use MIDI pins from gameport too.
These adapters are design for joysticks that are standard at time: CH Fligstick and Thrustmaster FCS.

Every with CH F-16 Combatstick (gameport) - that are more simple - you loose some buttons.

The only option (that I know) to use M$ FF PRO in USB is a old DIY circuit based in ATMEGA MCU - but only return to center force work, all others FF effect are lost.
