I bought one from Radio Shack about a month ago and have had no problems with it at all. I'm running XP. It cannot be beat for the price.

I just picked up the adaptor from Radio Shack, but I can't seem to get it to work with the MVP PC demo.

XP recognized it without me even needing to load the drivers. It's calibrated and tested correctly in the control panel, yet it's not working with the demo.

Any advice?

Did you try to plug it into the USB port on the right side of your computer? I heard there is a problem with lefties.

sf_z, thanks much, man. After siffting through those forums, I finally was able to get it to work.

You still need to go into the game to assign button placement, etc. but at least it works now.

Thanks again.
