Follow these steps if your joystick does not work with the Montego A3DXstream.

First connect your joystick or game controller directly to the Montego 
gameport. Avoid connecting the controller with a MIDI adapter cable or
joystick splitter cable. 

Check the Windows Control Panel to see if your controller is detected:

  - Click Start > Settings > Control Panel
  - Double-click Game Controllers, Gaming Options or Joystick

Your controller should be identified and listed with an OK status. If there
are no controllers listed:

  - Click the Add button
  - Select your controller from the list
  - Click OK

Contact the manufacturer if your controller is not listed or requires
additional software to be installed. Confirm that you have the latest version
of the software.  

If your controller is identified and listed with a Not Connected status:

  - Select your controller from the list
  - Click the Remove button and click Yes to confirm removing the controller
  - Click Add, Select 2-axis, 2-button joystick, Click OK

If your controller is now identified as 2-axis, 2-button joystick and listed
with an OK status, Windows may be having trouble working with your specific
controller. Contact the manufacturer for further assistance. 

If your controller continues to report a Not Connected Status, check the Port
Driver Assignment setting:

  - Click the Controller ID tab or click the Advanced button
  - Select Montego Gameport Interface in the Port Driver dropdown menu
  - Check the option for Poll with Interrupts Enabled

If your controller continues to report a Not Connected Status, check the 
Montego Joystick Driver:

  - Click Start > Settings > Control Panel
  - Double-click System  
  - Select the Device Manager tab
  - Under Sound, Video and Game Controllers, double-click Montego 
    Gameport Interface
  - Click the Resources tab

The Input/Output range must be listed. There should be no conflicts reported
in the conflicting device list. If another device is conflicting, disable it
or reconfigure it to use a different Input/Ouput range. 

If your mainboard features a built-in gameport, disable it and remove the
associated drivers. Contact the mainboard manufacturer for further assistance.

If you are replacing another sound card, be certain its gameport drivers 
are completely uninstalled. Contact the soundcard manufacturer for further
assistance.
