Where Can I Find USB Adapter Driver?

I have a USB to gameport adapter. I don't have any ID on the adapter or any doc. XP can ID it :cry so I'm hoping to find a generic driver. Any ideas where I can find one.:confused

 

The adapter has no marking what so ever. What I did was went into the control panel and into add new hardware ... I chose the option where the device was already connect. Win didn't find it so it ask me to pick the device from a list ... the closest I could find was "game port for CH Products Gamecard 3" now it shows up in the device manger with the highlighted marker ... I clicked on the detail tap and all I see is "device instant ID" in a pop down box with other listing ... and in the box below the pop down I see "ROOT/MEDIA/0000"
Under the general tap in the properties I see this message "Windows cannot determine the settings for this device. Consult the documentation that came with this device and use the Resource tab to set the configuration. (Code 34)"

I'll try the program you put up the link to ... and I will let you know.:wave

 

I don't understand what you mean about the drop down box ... are you asking about the other listings?

I tried the program, but I don't see any thing that is listed with the current date ... just stuff from last year and the year before ... I just hooked up the usb adapter yesterday, yet no listing.:cry
I have XP Pro service pack 3 32 bit.

 

The dropdown contains the details needed to find the maker and model # of the hardware.

 

When I look in the drop down and go to "hardware id" all I see is "*pnpb02f" that's it.:-o Oh and this is under the standard game port ... it is the only thing in the DM that has an ! and a message ... "Windows cannot determine the settings for this device. Consult the documentation that came with this device and use the Resource tab to set the configuration. (Code 34)":confused
The question is why can't window determine the settings?

 

Is the game port on a discrete soundcard or part of the motherboard?

 

If it is a USB/Gameport adapter like this one, did you try attaching your game controller to the adapter before you plugged it into the USB port of the computer?

:waveYes I do have a soundcard C-Media

yes the adapter is like that one only no switch, I did attach the game controller to the adapter before I plugged it into the USB port. Did all this while the computer was shut down.


I have a program called driver magician, but I don't know how to use it fully. I updated what it showed but it didn't solve the problem... I'm wondering now if it is a driver, because window does see it as well as the driver magician, but I have an ! in the device manager. Does determining the setting have to do with the driver?:confused

 

According to this site that I found the error code 34 is this ... " "The device requires manual configuration. Change the hardware setting by setting jumpers or running a vendor supplied tool, and then use the Resource tab in Device Manager to configure the device."

How the heck can I manually configure the adapter?:cry Any ideas:confused

 

I disconnected the USB adapter and hooked my yoke up to the gameport, but now windows doesn't see it and it did before ... what happen? Anyone? I used the new hardware program and window doesn't see it ... it ask me to show it ... I do ... set it up ... then I get the same dang message as above about the code 34:cry

 

I got the gameport back ... I uninstalled the sound card then let XP find it again ... after it did that It found the gameport too. When I looked into the device manager I saw two standard game ports ... one was working properly and the other was giving the code 34 ... so I uninstalled the one with the code 34 now the device manager is happy ... I'm going to stay away from the game port ... I need to find a way for the computer to see the adapter and the pedals ... I'm trying to get the computer to see the usb device ... so any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.:wave

 

Any idea what kind of USB adapter driver I should be looking for ... I have no manufacture info ... what the chances of finding a universal driver?:cry I just can believe this adapter is worthless!

 

I see who makes this adapter ... It is a "Belkin Pro USB Cable" I what I think is a part number "E166307" If you know where I can get the driver please post.:wave

 

What do you have connected to the gameport on the soundcard?

 

:waveI have the Ch Products Virtual Pilot Pro connected to the game port ... that is functioning properly ... I believe I need to find a driver for the Belkin usb to gameport adapter.rolleyes

I went to belkin's web site but so far I can find the driver for this adapter ... I send them an email in hopes they can hook me up with a driver ...

Thanks for posting:cool

 

Apparently this is a Belkin F3U200 and I have seen posting were it will only work with the sidewinder joystick so that $21 down the drain.:cry
