    saitek R220 - help needed

    ok, i got impatient and bought an R220 wheel setup from PC world today (they were on cheap)

    got it home, plugged it in, windows finds it and installs it, so i load up GTR.

    problem is that it set itself in 3 axis mode (the steering and accelerator on the x/y axis, the brake is on the slider)

    i have ooked on saiteks website and there is an r220 update files avlible, so i have downloaded that, but all it does is tell me that i dont need any update, then give me a button to "set mode" (2 or 3 axis) which dosent do a thing

    the PC is windows XP, with all updates, dfi lanparty nforce ultra motherboard, 1gb ram, xp2200, geforce 4 ti4400

    any ideas (apart from walking into PC world tommorow, playing hell, and paying the extra for a lgitech setup)??

    cheers

    got it working
    i have a saitek joypad and this new saitek wheel, the r220 update must have been getting mixed up between them, as soon as i unplugged the joypad the update worked correctly.

    the driver still isnt right (it tell you to unplug, then plug in, when you plug it back it it dosent do what it should. but at least i have not got it set to work with GTR
