Hello,

I have Miscrosoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 too.. Currently I have Flanker 2.0 running. I haven't seen any problem with my stick.

I made an upgrade sometime ago from Flanker 2.0 to Flanker 2.5, but I moved to Flanker 2.0 back since my laptop is too slow to run Flanker 2.5. With Flanker 2.5 my stick was running properly too.

!!! There must be a CDROM disk shiiped with your joystick, there is a utility that could program it. In Flanker menu you just have specify "use joistick configuration".
