Joystick problems

[SONY007]

Just bought myself a 'Saitek Cyborg 3D Platinum' joystick for my pc so I can use it to play Medal Of Honour on-line but I can't get the thing to work. I've followed the instruction book to the Tee on how to install it. I put in the cd followed the prompts until it asked me to connect the usb lead in the pc, finished the installed process. 'Hardware was installed successfully' it says. I then click on the 'Saitek Smart Technology Programming Software' icon on my destop and I get this message 'You must plug in a supported Saitek programmable controller before you can continue'. So what is a programmable controller? how do I get this joystick to work?

I think you're in the wrong forum. Try www.saitek.com, where along with up-to-date downloads of drivers and manuals, you'll find FAQs, a support forum, e-mail addresses, telephone numbers, and more.

And no, I don't own any Saitek products.
