Mystery window?????
A window reading the following came up. What does it mean?
Terminating thread due to a stack overflow problem. A VxD, possibly resently installed, has consumed too much stack space. Increase the setting of MinSP's in system.ini or remove recently installed VxD's. There are currently 5 sps allocated.
When I want to add a game controller a window pops up saying the following:
Gameport or Gameport drivers are not properly configured. Please consult device manager.
On the software it says:
Sidewinder did not detect a game port. If it connects to a game port, you can continue setup, but your game controller will not work with your computers current configuration.
Any explanations for either one. Thanks!!!!

Problem #1 solved.
Problem #2 is not. I had to add new hardware(joystick) to get my game controllers added. Now I can't get them connected. I've checked everything. Window pops up saying "Your game controller not connected correctly or cannot communicate with your computer." Don't you have to configure this somewhere? Please let me know. I'm getting closer every time. Thanks!!

I said I all ready have them added but their status is unconnected. When I try to connect the window appears saying "Your game controller is not connected correctly or cannot communicate with your computer." So I cannot even test the game controllers let alone change their status to "ok". Help!!!!!!

Go to Start > Run and type in 'msconfig' (without the quotes). When the window comes up click on the System.ini tab then scroll down to the [386Enh] section. Highlight the line with [386Enh] then click on 'New'. In the little box that appears type in:
MinSPs=10
Hit Return then OK out and Reboot.
P.S. If this doesn't work with WindowsME please post back. I know it works with Windows98 and 98SE and should work with ME but I don't run it so I'm not positive....
