4. Double-click Sound, Video And Game Controllers, and then select Creative Audigy 2 Gameport (Creative Game Port for Windows 2000). 5. Click the Properties button. 6. In the Properties dialog box: If you have an Original Configuration (Current) check box: • Clear the check box to disable it. If you have a Disable In This Hardware Profile check box: • Make sure that the check box is selected to disable it. 7. Click OK to restart Windows and for the change to take effect. When the Gameport Joystick interface is disabled, the entry in Device Manager has a red cross. Do not attempt to make changes to the BIOS unless you have experience with system software. The joystick is not working properly in some programs. The program may use the system processor timing to calculate the joystick position. When the processor is fast, the program may determine the position of the joystick incorrectly, assuming that the position is out of range. To solve this problem: Increase your system's 8 bit I/O recovery time of the BIOS setting, usually under the Chipset Feature Settings section. Or, if available, you may adjust the AT Bus speed to a slower clock. If the problem persists, try a different joystick. Troubleshooting and FAQs B-8
