I have the Microsoft Sidewinder Precision 2 joystick and this weekend my new computer will be here and I was going to install the joystick on the new computer, but I can not find the installation CD that came with the joystick. Is there a way to install the joystick without the CD? Or do I have to buy a new joystick?

Hi, If your OS is XP I think that it comes with the drivers installed so you just have to plug it and it will be recognised. If not try to do a Windows Update and it will probably find a set of drivers then.Kind regards,

I can verify this. An up-to-date installation of WindowsXP, either Home or Pro, will have no problem self-installing this joystick.sjKEWR

Yes the new computer will have Windows XP pro on it. Thanks guys! :-)I spent like almost a hour or so looking for that CD :-lol I'm glad to hear I will not need it and I don't have to buy a new joystick.
