Others will know better, but the adaptor might just be drawing too much power from the same source, although a mouse and keyboard shouldnt effect it I would think, but never the less a $40 powered hub could still be worth a try, albeit a long shot. G/L

This is a swing from left field, as I know little (generally and about EF LOL) Is there enough power from the USB outlet to the DP adaptor ? (dependant on where or what you have it plugged into) Reason I suggest this is I had a problem with a USB powered set of headphones and G25 conflicting when pl...

I have a problem that I need help with, Since installing Win7 (although I dont believe that is the problem) I get screen flicker in my two outside screens in rFactor when I am sitting in the pits.

A friend of mine used the Zalman screen and glass's a year or so ago in our raciing league for rFactor, he reported that in an F1 car you felt that you could reach out and touch the front wheels and in an accident it felt like you were going to get hit in the face with car bits.... and was very happ...

http://www.insidesimracing.tv/ If you havnt already, have a look at the above link, they compare those two wheels. The G27 is good but doesnt have sequential shifting from the stick, as the G25 does. The bevelled gears make it a little better (smoother/quieter), as do the extra buttons and the shift...

Destroy, could you explain where you edited the files. I am looking to sit a little closer, but have a wider FOV pls. Thanks Mike As a side note, it doesnt seem to matter where the FF is set to, there is consistant vibration on the wheel (as you would expect in a rally game), making a G25 (with nois...

I bought the game as a D/l from steam. Took ages to D/L.... The game found my graphis settings and set everything to run well.

Is it something as simple as not selecting the widescreen resolution in your video config ?
IE in rF when you select the graphics config you have to set the resolutions that you wish to use/are compatable with your system.

I don't know how Steam works as far as installing retail on one and downloading it on the other. When you buy the retail game, does it register it with Steam so that you can download it from Steam in the future? You should be able to install the game on other systems and play on them just fine. You...

There's the already mentioned stretched GUI, but more troubling was the missing graphics. There are some trackside objects missing, some distance popup, and opponent cars appear out of nowhere. You only see their shadow pass you then you see the car. It's not very playable. I have had the same prob...

Its personal preference, but I try to make the distance to the centre of the screen to your eye, the same for all 3. It tends to give you the same focal plane when you glance to the outer screens IE (checking mirrors or other cars beside you ) thus not requiring your eye to refocus to any large degr...
