ASUS P4P800S-X and game port problem
I have the above motherboard and installed the game/midi module and
plugged it into the 16 pin connector on the mobo ... problem is the port is not recognized under XP (sp-2). I have tried manually installing the game port driver through the "add hardware" feature, but under the hardware manager get the familiar little yellow exclamation mark under the "sound, midi, and gameport" tab. I have also tried plugging the joystick into the port and hoping for an auto recognition and install ... nothing. What am I doing wrong ... how can I get this port recogonized. Any help would be much appreciated. |

Any help would be much appreciated. Is the port enabled in the BIOS?
