Hello !
years ago i buy a steering wheel brand TEVION.
It's called twin turbo 2 supreme.
the problem is that it's only compatible with old windows like 2000 and xp.
but i have 64bit windows 7. And the problem is that when pc can't recognize it. It was working fine when i was using xp windows.
I was looking for new drivers for windows 7 but no luck.

So can aneybodey find for me this the drivers. OR its posyble that i can do aneything ( maybe with some software) that I'm using windows7 but my reacing wheel recognize that I'm using windows xp ?

thanks and have a nice day.

Vista and above use a completely different driver format then before. XP was the last Windows OS to allow drivers to run in Kernel space. Vista and above moved them out of Kernel space and into user only. That way if the driver crashed it it didn't crash the PC. Basically what I'm trying to say is I doubt there are any drivers that will allow that old wheel to work. It's probably time to buy a new one.

Non that I know of, or at least non that will work with something that old. When MS changed how/where the drivers load, a lot of stuff needed to be replaced. One of the most famous things that people lost was the Audigy series of sound cards from Sound Blaster. They still worked in Vista, but you lost all the cool stuff they could do. (EAX support, etc.) I still have mine around here, but it just sits in a bucket.
