Yes, but some people just might already have the receiver so as to hook the best controller to their PC. BUt you are right about the wheel. I tried mine in rFactor and GTR-E and it just doesn't measure up to my G25 on a PC.

I have no problems really with Ziggo... Although their support is really bad ( to say it nicely, and barely use it ) i almost always have a stable connection and at full speed. But i am in an area where Multikabel (don't know if that matters) was before and i found that better.
I have the "Alles in 1" pack.
But no real problems here....

I had the same, was on the 'old' casema network till 2 weeks ago. Never had any issues.
Then they migrated the old network and that's when the trouble started.
But, on tuesday i have a machanic coming over so hopefully it gets sorted.

 

[Maurice Hurkmans]

No ziggo here. Got a ADSL line from KPN, prolly gonna switch to a faster and more stable KPN Fibreglass line

Man,the best solution for a Logitech controler is to download the driver from logitech site. www.logitech.com .......I have a problem like that with my MOMO Racing and one i instaled the original driver from the logitech site it works with no more problems.

Has anyone got one of these?

http://www.speedblack.com/UK/home.html

Just come across these and was wondering if anyone had one and what they are like?

 

[Abdul Al-Amry]

I was checking the same cockpit today over at Scan, its going for 80 quid. Would like to hear from someone already using it before getting it.

 

[Lee Madden]

£80 !! I could make my own using a couple of old bike frames and a mig welder an 2 bits of ply wood !! :skywalker:

Who is gonna buy a receiver to connect the worst wheel ever build to a PC?

Then spend the money for such a receiver on a decent wheel

Bram, I know youre not a fan of the wheel, but it isnt as bad as you make out. Also, it makes sense to use what you have already got if you dont have the readies available to buy another wheel to use on another platform. Better to have one wheel that works on both eh!

To bad Mike,
I have had the same issues with no FFB on Windows.
And after mailing with MS. The official answer is;
We made the XBOX360 racingwheel for the XBOX360. We don't support the Racing Wheel in combination with whatever type of console or pc you are using beside the XBOX360.:disapointed:

Just another reaction from Bram about the MS Racing wheel:

Thrustmaster FFB. XP 64 bit problem

Problem solved by buying a other steer lol

 

[Abdul Al-Amry]

Wow, just saw this new headset. Fell in love with it. Bargain at £55. I'll be buying it soon.

7.1 surround.

 

[Lee Downham]

^^ heh heh ... you really are a gadget man eh Abdul mate ... as are we all I guess

EDIT: I would get this :drool:
(deffo would not consider full price for it though ... that is more than I paid for my damn G25!!)

And ... does anyone know whether you could output motec type data to the screen on that keyboard ... if so it would be a really groovy external display for this kinda data mehtinks.

 

[Simon Trendell]

There was one for the G15 that will work on the G19 it just won't be in colour.
I'll admit that G19 is really tempting.

 

[DeeezNutz]

Sounds like a nice alternative for a playseat for people with limited space like me. I only wonder if it is as stable as they say, because i tend to be a little hard on the wheel sometimes. I was looking for something like this so i don't have to race in a crap position anymore. Hope someone has one and can tell it is worth the money...
If so, maybe i'll take a G25 with it when i see a nice discount :rotfl:

 

[Mike Simian]

The seat looks a bit funky
