Some people here praised Logitech Wingman Formula Force GP, so I got one and had Logitech software installed on Windows 98, Celeron 1000 PC.

It was correctly recognized by NFS 3 game. But there's a small lag before wheel turning makes an effect in the game, making it useless there.

Is it normal? If not, what could be the reason?

Windows 95 | Chaintech 486SPM M102.A | AMD-X5-133ADW or Am486DX4-100 | 48MB SIMM FPM | ATI Rage 3D II+DVD | CT4100 | 8GB CF

Windows 98 | Acorp 6BX86 | Pentium III 900, slotket | 512MB PC100 | Radeon 9250 | SoundForte SF16-FMI-03 | 64GB MicroSD

Strange, I played NFS3 under Win98 with a cheap Tracer Zonda usb steering wheel a couple of months ago and it worked fine. Are there any sensitivity settings available in the proprietary software? Or maybe a sensitivity dial on the wheel itself?

Win98 rig: Athlon XP 2500+/512MB RAM/Gigabyte GA-7VT600/SB Audigy/GF FX5700/Voodoo2 12MB
WinXP rig: HP RP5800 - Pentium G850/2GB RAM/GF GT530 1GB
Amiga: A600/2MB RAM
PS3: Slim, CFW, mostly for RetroArch & PSX games
PS2: Fat, FMCB

Make sure NFS 3 is patched to the latest version.

It's not normal, I have the same setup (well technically dad does)

P3 600, Win98 with minimal patches but does have IE6 installed.
Wingman software 4.60

Force feedback in NFS3 feels different then NFS4 but neither had lag?
