Win 7 and gameport devices

[soldano]

I own yet some CH gameport devices such as pedals and joystick and used them OK with XP and the gameport provided from an old PCI sound card.- I now migrated to Win 7 64, and although could install the sound card and CH drivers, the devices doesnt show at the windows printers and devices section, only my USB game devices show, the searching and installing new devices function neither detects them.-
At the device manager the sound card shows OK, in parallel with the onboard sound device.-
Is there a solution ?
Thanks

MS dropped support with Vista onward. Not sure how well they work, but you can get a gameport to USB adapter. If you need custom drivers, not sure how well the usb adapter would work. Ebay has them for under $10 shipped.
