USB Joystick, Serial pedals.....

[lewisp]

My Bro-in-law has a new-ish PC with XP home and an MS Sidewinder USB joystick. So far so good. However, he wants to plug in his serial-port aircraft control pedals. Can a USB joystick and serial pedals be successfully combined in XP? If so, how?

If you have the correct drivers it is possible but it is not possible to use the joystick and the pedals in a game at the same time. You have to make an option in the settings menu of the game which controller you want to use.
