I too have a Sidewinder FF2 joystick...apparently one of the rarer ones too with the red plastic trigger. I'm sorry to hear that you're haveing trouble with yours. I love mine to death and would not trade it for anything in the world. It's an awesome joystick, and it's a shame that MS pulled the plug on it. You can find them online, but they're very expensive now. I think that I saw some for $250, a heck of a lot more than the $50 I paid back in the day.
