please could someone advise me?
ill try to keep this short.
i installed a new mainboard (Gigabyte GA-7ZX)and processor Athlon 900, i have a Voodoo 3 pci graphic card. while installing my new Sound Blaster Live 1024 sound card the computer hung and i had to power off/on to restart.
restart went well, several days later however i tried to use a game pad, which incidently is plugged into the gameport on the mainboard, and got the response "Your Gameport or Gameport drivers are not properly configured...". i looked in device manager and under creative misc devices the Creative Gameport Joystick has an exclamation mark on it.
i tried to update the drivers as suggested which caused another crash.
i have moved the card to another slot, another crash.
i would appreciate any advice on how to resolve the problem or if the device is faulty.
thanks in advance. mic
