X52 Stick won't work on PS/2 connection.

[spuddler]

Hi,just joined this forum has i have just purchased a X52,recieved it today.Put the set up disc in,plugged in the throttle (USB connection),plugged in the joystick(PS2 connection).When i got to the 'TEST' page the throttle works OK,but nothing happens when i move or press any buttons on the joystick(both devices blue lights are lit).Continued to the finish of set up and can see nothing on my desktop etc.Any help with this problem would be appreciated.

It's not entirely clear from the descriptrion but it sounds like you haven't connected it properly.
The joystick plugs into the throttle which plugs into the computer.

Wow, i was doing the same thing, pluggin stick into ps/2 connection. Thanks for the post, i now realize i'm a comlete idiot and have plugged the stick into the throttle. I guess i shouldnt feel so dumb though because nowhere in the manual does it tell you to do this :confused:
