The hardware is sidewinder force feedback pro which is almost in "mint" condition. I still have the installation disk. Also it has a male port plug, my mobo has a male plug too. I have done a "google" and have seen adaptors that go from port plug to USB. My question is, will SideWinder work properly using that adaptor?
