Hey all...
I'm trying to adapt an IBM PC joystick to use on my 1000HX but haven't had much success. I believe that my IBM gameport->Tandy adapter is wired correct, but X&Y aren't work as expected (the buttons do however). I believe that the resistance ranges are different between IBM PC game port and Tandy, but I didn't think they were completely incompatible. I'm trying to determine if I have a component issue in the computer itself or if I need a bona-fide Tandy stick. I have tried several PC compatible joysticks, both analog and digital.
