Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 3 and Windows 10

Unbelievable dirty trick  I bought a new computer just to play my favorite Microsoft games.   Bought windows 10 instead of using redhat. UMBUTU And now I find out that Combat Flight Sim 3 has been made useless to Me.

So much for doing no evil!!!!!!!!!!!

Alan,

Please my previous reply on Oct. 7, 2016 for possible ideas.  I do not have CFS2.

How do you get CFS3 to run with Windows 10?

CFS3 did run with Windows 8 and 8.1 but will NOT run with Windows 10.

How do you fix this?

Something strange is going on here!

I have Win 10 and an old Sidewinder FF 2 stick.

FS2000 works a treat, no issues!

CFS Collection 2 (WW2 Europe, Pacific, Cold War Air Power) will start, but is badly controlled from the keyboard. If you calibrate the joystick from CFS (i.e. calling the windows joystick calibration routine) its there and its fine - its just that CFS can't see the stick inputs.

Any offers?

cheers

Alan
