I am trying to use my Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel in Windows 7 using the Wireless Gaming Receiver to connect it to my PC.
It connects fine and I can use the wheel in games, but I'm not getting any force feedback and I don't see it mentioned in the device configuration in the control panel.
This page: http://www.xbox.com/en-gb/hardware/x/xbox360wirelessgamingreceiver/ specifies that the wheel should have drivers available for Windows Vista in the future (I am guessing this page is well out of date) with force feedback but I can't find mention of these drivers anywhere.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Technically, this is a Windows 7 Driver Support question on when then Wireless Gaming Receiver drivers will be updated to provide force feedback support as was promised in the URL the previous poster provided.
I to would be interested in if this work is progressing. If it has been cancelled you may wish to notify marketing and get them to update the page in question.
Cheers.
I have no doubt it would be trivial for SOMEONE to do this little project at MS.
hey guys, has anyone tried creating a new thread which links to this thread because it seems as if they are ignoring this thread which was started 9 months ago... which they probably think they have answered.
Yeah, I thought the same thing.
I posted a bunch of new posts asking why this one had not been answered, they were all merged with this thread. See these:

Force Feedback is not currently available for the Racing Wheel in the Windows. (according to wikipedia:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_360_Wireless_Racing_Wheel#Criticism)
