Re: Games Port
James - I am running Windows2000, and am using my circuit with the BCX playout system, this uses all 4 buttons to start it's 4 playback ports - It works fine. You MUST have the 2 resistors wired correctly, these cause Windows to initialize the Game Port and detect a "2-axis, 4-button boystick" - You can then use the "Test" option and check the little red-lights under "Gaming Options" in Control Panel. Here's an example, sorry "4" isn't lit - the PC is being used - and holding 4 buttons with your one hand whilst doing ALT-PrintScreen is a little tricky! http://www.micslive.com/joystick.PNG If the resistors are not wired correctly, you'll end-up with either 2 buttons or no detected joystick.
