Microsoft Sidewinder Dual Strike - 12/10/99
by: Johan Bengtsson

Installation:

The installation of this gamepad is incredible easy. All you need to do is plug in the gamepad and then Windows detects it and prompts you to insert the drivers. You plug in the cd that you get in the box and then all you need to do is restart the computer to get the Dual Strike gamepad working properly.

When you have the gamepad properly working you can configure it for the game you plan to play. In the Sidewinder Dual Strike setup you can choose from 20 pre configured setups and you can also configure your own. In most games you will probably want to configure your own setting or just change the config that already is there as almost every player wants to have their own settings for the best feeling.

You can also configure each button with a series of keystrokes. I tried to write a pretty long sentence and there wasn’t any problems at all so you can easily add your favorite combination. You will kick ass in fighting games as you can have all special moves easily reachable on one button.
