Lost My Saitek Disc!

Postby Mistro » Sun Aug 15, 2010 2:37 pm

I have a Saitek Cyborg Evo Force joystick. I recently reformatted and noticed when landing and taxiing on a dirt runway, I do not feel any bumps like I used to. I then realized after checking my settings that I never reinstalled the software. Now I cannot find my disc. Does anyone know where I can download the software for this joystick? Thanks in advance.

Edit:
I'm not very savvy on driver install's do and don'ts. The stick works, but no force feedback. I also noticed that the collaboration menu was lacking some things I had before. If I just installed drivers I found through a Google search, would it be safe to install and would that get all the features back? Or is the interface where you test the force feedback some aprt from what you get when you download the drivers?

Never mind. I didn't look at the Saitek site carefully. I went straihgt to the forums instead of the downloads section. I found what I needed.

You will probably find the Windows Default Driver settings for your Joystick, without having the manufacturers Drivers, here:

Start > Settings > Control Panel > Game Controllers > [Your Joystick, etc] > Properties.....

The "Force-feedback" can be set to suit, within the Game/Sim itself.
