No, no, the stick's all installed and works in game fine (the basic controls, pitch,roll, yaw and throttle along with all 8 fire buttons! Why do I need 8 fire buttons? Can't hit anything with one so...). The Pain I was referring to is really with the SST. It would be nice to have a graphical version, but this doesn't seem to be an option with Vista, you get the table version or nothing. Anyway, I think I'm getting to grips with this now as I removed all my key mappings, then put them all back in again
