MadCatZ PS3 TE FightStick: PC - Xp- vista- win7 32-64bit (read 1st post)

No, someone reported the NEC chipset did not fix his issues pages back.
Via or intel chipsets only.

Thank you. How is it working for you? I see some reviews mentioning data corruption and other issues.

To be honest, I havent used it for anything other than mame and the TE, and for that purpose it has been flawless.

I can do a test run of 400gb’s of data to an externa hard drive, and report back if any issues creep up.

Ill set the transfer tonight before I goto bed, and report back in the am.

Is the Dynex USB card worth getting if it’s not vista compatible, I’m running Windows7 so I can only assume it would have the same issues?

Maybe it’s an idea to sticky this thread? Or implement the 1st post into the officiel madcatz fightpad/stick stickied topic…would stop a lot of people from asking.

anyone find an Expresscard version with a via chipset?

Am I the only one who wants this to work on a laptop? … It’s my desktop that’s outdated and old… My laptop is the only one that can run SF4 properly.

And my brother’s desktop doesn’t have any PCI slots so he’s not letting me install one in.

No, you’re not the only one. However, I gave up on this a long time ago.
For me, MAME is just not that important any more.

There are other options but it always involves more money. In the meanwhile, try http://www.motioninjoy.com/, so you can at least use SIXAXIS or Dualshock 3 on the laptop.

Nope, no data corruption issues transferring a 400gb image file. CRC and bit count check out.

Great, thanks for checking!

i want to buy a sf4 te stick ps3 version for my pc windows xp.

I went to play n trade and the guy told me he doesnt know if ps3 te stick will work on pc but he told hes sure that the xbox360 version will work without a problem since its microsoft.

Previously I plugged my TE PS3 into one of the USB slots and it worked fine now a week later I try to use it and nothing happens I am using the same USB slot but the computer does recognize it but the buttons are unresponsive, it is very strange :xeye:.

Just to let you know, this does work (Another Confirmation):

It was posted earlier in the thread by some other forum poster. Anyway I have an EVGA 780i Motherboard (NForce) on Windows XP 32 Bit Home Edition FYI.

However, I did run into some trouble getting it to work. I guess that’s the problem with buying a cheap ass PCI USB Card. My EVGA 780i kept on seeing the PCI Card as ā€œmalfunctionedā€ and ā€œnot installed correctlyā€. Afterwards, I connected my PCI Card to a different computer running on an ASUS Motherboard to check if it was functioning…and it was. Out of luck, I tried reconnecting the PCI Card to my EVGA 780i and it worked! Weird, huh? I really don’t know what fixed the card. :wonder:

wow they still haven’t fixed this? glad I bought an HRAP3 and sold my se. Madcatz will never fool me again

Did it fit easily? One reviewer says he has trouble fitting it in the socket.

It worked fine for me. I’m running a Nvidia 680i board. No problems fitting it in.

Yup, there were no problems fitting it into my EVGA 780i. The socket is standard PCI. (NOT EXPRESS BTW!) It was only some compatibility issues…that eventually fixed itself out.

I had some weird issues with it running under Windows XP, and then I installed the drivers that came on the disk. It sorted everything out. It’s automatically detected, but I recommend installing the drivers that came with the card.

I just formatted and installed Windows 7. Haven’t had the opportunity to try out the stick yet, but I’ll do it tonight. I don’t anticipate any issues, however. I’ll report back in for anyone who’s curious.
