Hi there!

Having a really bad day here. Got my old Sidewinder FFB working again with a soundblaster live gameport and wanted to try some oldies. BOB2 works ok, but no FFB. Mig Alley starts but the graphics are corrupted with some flare strobe effect. X-wing Alliance has the same graphics bug. It has something to do with incompatible ddraw versions with newer Nvidia drivers I think. Tried multi-monitor with Black Shark, but ooops, Nvidia manage to scrap the horizontal span functionality. So that's what I got for buying a newer Nvidia card...

So anyway, just checking if someone here knows:

1. Enable horizontal span with newer Geforce cards?
2. How to get FFB in BOB2? (it works in other games)

Thanks for any help!
