Well, my joystick. The end of the cable, it has 15 pins in it.

Now, back fo my computer. Has not got a slot for it, ive tried everything.

My old computer, had a slot for it.

This joystick is from 1998, but it is so good. Throttle 4 buttons and a hat. The buttons are in such a good comfortable place.

I dont want to buy a new one. How can i get it into my comp? :|

    There are gameport expansion cards, but i think they are all ISA..

    I know that some sound cards still have the Gameport slot on them... mine does.

    Is there no such thing as a gameport to USB adapter then? It sounds like something that ought to exist, and might be the easiest solution.

    Well, some soundcards have a midi keyboard slot aka the same slot for joysticks, a low range CL Soundblaster will set you back less than £30.

    How exactly does one get far enough on the Internet to be able to post forum questions which are easily answered by Google? The world may never know...

    See, thats why everyone loves Monse. You can ask a question and then it seems automatic that Monse drops out of the sky and is like a ninja with his uber-throwing-link-attack-of-ownage. Its amazing, really.
