Hello all,
The other day, I purchased a QuickShot Starfighter 5 (QS-191) gamepad (new in box, shrink-wrapped), and it arrived today.
I immediately tried to test it in DOS (DOS 7.1, I am using Win98SE), and in the game GODS, the axis (UP/DOWN) seem off (only up works)
Then I tried DOOM and although all the fire buttons work, on access seem *stuck* as the character tends to automatically run forward. (after I define the Joystick control in SETUP, the game runs a calibration test and then the game begins.
My Setup:
* I am connecting this gamepad via a MIDI-Joystick pass-through cable (one end goes into my AWE64 GOLD, which connects to Roland SC-55 MKII)
* CPU is a PIII-800E, on Abit BH-6 Mobo
Questions:
* Is there a DOS utility (TSR type that you configure, and then it stays resident) that allows me to calibrate this gamepad before running any games?
* In Windows 98SE, this gamepad is not even detected.
* Could it be that it is defective? I mean all the axis and the two buttons seem to work, it seems that it needs a bit of adjustment?
Thanks for your kind help!
