Combat Flight Simulater 1

Fellas,all of us who play cfs1 have a big problem,the game will not recognize the joystick with Vista,it works in 98SE an XP.No combination of compatibility settings will work so far,I wondered if anyone has any ideas.

Try posting on Avsim, Flightsim or Sim-Outhouse Forums. I No longer play CFS 1, I am into CFS 3
