Stay away December 4, 2003 11 out of 24 found this review helpful
I've owned a Sidewinder for a little over a year. In that year I have reinstalled the software more than 20 times. It seems that whenever I shut down the computer the device driver vanishes. This last time (and it will be the last time) I reinstalled the software and the joystick will still not work. Trying to contact tech support is a nightmare. Bouncing around the microsoft website is a joke. I've tried everything they have suggested, yet nothing. Acessing online tech support they notify me that tech support for this product is not available in the United States- apparently I flew to asia and purchased this product without my knowledge. The final answer to my question appears to be to not buy any Microsoft products.
Easy to install and works December 19, 2003 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
It's very easy to install, just plug it in a follow the install wizard. It works with regular Windows 98, not just Windows 98 SE and later. It feels more stable that the Logitech Wingman, even though it's less weighty. The handle is a good size and the movement is easy. A great purchase.
Not the best, but does the job. March 14, 2005 George L. (Mercer Island) 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
No instalation required. Though if you start Microsoft Flight Simulator 2000 Professional, and then connect, you have to change the settings. VEry durable! Still works. Only two button are really needed.

Ok, so it's not the best stick around, but I like it.
