I have a Pro-Throttle, Fighterstick, Propedals combo that I need help with

Since upgrading with an Abit SE6 and P3 700E, I have the following problems with my joystick:

1- When in joystick calibration using either windows or your ChJoyDrv, my machine locks up as soon as I hit any key or button. Resetting the power switch on the case is the only way to clear this.

2 - When I try to open Speed keys I get an error ?Could not find device.. make sure your device is connected to the gameport and keyboard port?. Clicking OK closes SKeys.

The setup works fine in my other machine (P3 450 w/128mb and BX MB that runs at 100mhz). I have already preformed the AU300mmed.inf file mod mentioned here earlier. This did get the sound running but I joystick still no workie.

Here?s what I tried:

- Set key repetition rate to 6hz in BIOS
- Checked connections
- Bump FSB speed to 66mhz
- Replaced keyboard with a P/S2 one (non programmable)
- Placed sound card in other PCI slots
- Checked for outages in Device manager (none there)
- Checked that the on board sound and video were disabled

Here?s my machine specs:
Abit SE6 MB (Intel 815E chipset)
P3 700E
256mb ram
IBM 7200 15gb HD
Maxtor 7200 30 HD
Toshiba 12x DVD drive
Diamond mx300 sound card
Voodoo 5500 agp
3c905b 3 com NIC
Avermedia TV/FM tuner
Win98 SE
All components have latest drivers.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,
Brian
