A few of the Logitech wheels work on both the PS2 and the PC without drivers.

Would that be the old red colored wheel with the cable drive? (That's what I
have and it's about 5 years old now)
If so I know you can't just plug and play like the newer Logitech wheels,
and I'm not aware of any adaptors, but if you do locate one, please post it
in this thread as I'd be VERY interested in that too!

Thanks

There is a small USB port that is in blue where the rest of the unit is
black I think.

At the Best Buys I have seen, they are all tethered to the seat.
