Several questions
1) version of directx ?
2) model of joystick controller and USB or gameport connection?
3) version of windows?
4) have you upgraded directx since your joystick drivers were installed?
5) have you updated your joystick drivers recently?
6) If the stick is installed in the gameport of your soundcard, have you updated your soundcard driversrecently?Lot's of possibilities as to the cause. These are some of the things someone needs to know to answer your question.

I sometimes get this message when playing online, if the host launches the game exactly at the moment i use my mouse in another app (shut browser, check Roger Wilco settings etc...) I've seen it with all versions of direct X (6.1, 7.0, 7.0a, 8.0, 8.0a), and with both usb and game port stick, also with both usb and PS/2 mouse.
I also had the problem when i tried the English version of DirectX8.0a on my French version of windows. Swapping to the French DX8.0a solved the problem (with earlier versions I could use the English DX).
err is this really helpful ...  ------------------

I'd guess Luny has hit it. SDOE has lost focus, somehow.IP: Logged | |
