JCENTER Results:
•
If test displays numbers over 300 when joystick is centered..
.
Your gameport is too slow for your computer. You may need to install a faster gamecard such as the CH Gamecard 3 Automatic™
(sold separately).
•
If test displays “NONE” under each axis in the table…
Your gameport is either not enabled in DOS or not enabled completely. Some sound cards do not have legacy DOS support, and
therefore would not show a response in the DOS based JCENTER program. If your soundcard/gameport has DOS support but
reports NONE in JCENTER you will need to contact your soundcard/gameport manufacturer for more information.
•
If test displays numbers but they do not change when joystick is moved
Verify that the Combatstick is the only game controller attached. This includes any game controllers attached to the USB port.
