You will only need to do this if you have more than one 'gameport joystick' driver installed as described in point 6 of the section titled Checking to see if you already have the joystick driver installed.

• 1. Right click on My Computer on the Desktop
• 2. A small menu will appear, go to the bottom and click on Properties. This will bring up a window with the title 'System Properties'.
• 3. Click on the Device Manager tab at the top of this window.
• 4. A list of hardware on your machine will appear. Go down the list until you come to Sound, Video and Game controllers.
• 5. Expand this section by double clicking on the word 'Sound, Video and Game controllers', or by clicking on the '+' beside the words.
• 6. A list of devices should appear, in which you will have either one or more of the driver called Gameport joystick. It is possible that you have a plug and play sound card, in which case the name of the joystick driver may be different to that on 'Gameport Joystick'. For example it may be Creative Plug n Play Gameport'.
• 7. Remove the joystick drivers. This can be done by clicking on the word 'Gameport Joystick' (or whatever your one(s) may be called), so that it is highlighted, and clicking on the remove button on the bottom of the window. This can be repeated until all of the 'Gameport joystick' drivers have been removed.
• 8. Restart your machine (Start, Shut Down, Restart Computer). This is required just in case you have a plug and play gameport, in which case when the Windows 95 / 98 restarts, it will automatically install the joystick driver.

When the computer has restarted, if you see a screen at the beginning saying 'Windows has found new hardware and is installing the software necessary to install the device', then you will need to make sure that it is the joystick driver that has been installed. For information on how to check this, follow the instructions as described in the section Checking to see if you already have the joystick driver installed. If it is installed, then you can Calibrate your joystick as necessary and everything should work properly. If on the other hand you did not see such a message then you will need to install the Windows 95 / 98 driver manually. For information on how to do this, refer to the section titled How to Install the Windows 95 / 98 driver. Once this is completed, you can calibrate your joystick as necessary and everything should work properly.
