Speed Link Wheel doesn't work properly

I have bought myself a Speedlink SL 6697. The wheel works when I try it in games, but the forcefeedback doesn't I have tried several games and in none it works. I also have a gamepad from Speelink and there the force feedback works fine, so it's not because of the game itself (I tried several different ones).

When I switch on the FF I can feel it, because it puts a resistance on the wheel. Also when I switch it off, turn the wheel a bit, and then switch it back on, I can see that it works, because the motors put it automatically back in the middle position. However, even in the driver, there is a tab where you can try different affects and none of them work.

 

So I wonder if there might be some issue with the drivers, windows 2000 SP4, or if the wheel itself doesn't work. Since I can see that the motors are working I assume a driver problem, but maybe I'm wrong.

 

Any ideas what it might be?

I finially found the solution. :) When looking in the controller options from windows, my controller was at position 4. I moved it up to position 0 and now it works. Seems to be a bug in the driver, because with the gamepad it works fine.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
