Can't help... sorry, but empathy is heading your way at the speed of 
light.

I installed Win 95 last night, then spent the follwing several hours 
trying to get my Tseng ET4000w32p to work. Win 95 recognised it and 
loaded its drivers, but as soon as Win 95 started an big ugly message 
appeared saying that the Tseng was conflicting with my PCI HDD 
controller, and that I should "remove" one of the devices...good advice 
that...

Seing as the PC (P90) worked perfectly for several months I simply don't 
believe the message. It said the two cards were both trying to use 
IRQ15, and I can change the Tseng to IRQ 9, but thats what my 
Thrustmaster ACM game card uses and I can't change that as it has no 
jumpers.

Incedentally, my joystick isn't recognised at all! Either as a 
Thrustmaster FCS or two button joystick, MSD finds it OK, as does every 
other game on the planet - but not wonderful Windows.

MS customer "service" suggested that I "delete" my autoexec and config 
to fix the problem, can't wait to get home tonight and see if it 
works...

I tried running the Tseng drivers that worked in Win 3.11, but it 
crashed the system...

Anyone got any ideas?
