Description of Gaming Devices Icon in Control Panel |
After you install the SideWinder game pad software, a Gaming Devices icon replaces the standard Joystick icon in Control Panel.
The standard Joy.cpl file from Windows 95/98 is replaced by a version of
the file that is included with SideWinder game pad.
The Gaming Devices tool supports the testing of both the SideWinder 3D Pro
and SideWinder game pad, as well as the testing and calibrating of other
third-party gaming input devices. If the test screen in Gaming Devices
does not respond properly to keystrokes, directional pad movement, or
other input from non-Microsoft gaming devices, please see the following
