I got my new system this week end:
ASUS P5W DH Deluxe, Intel Core2 Quad 2,66 GHz, 4 GB DDR2 RAM, GeForce 8800GTS 540 MB, Seagate SATA 500 GB

I installed my old Creative PCI 128 ES1371 sound card since there is no gameport in the onboard sound card. I am using Windows Vista and it correctly detected and installed the sound card, but when I go to Control Panel->Gameport Controller I cannot add a controller because the"Add" button isn't there.

I did a little search and found this:

That driver also installed correctly using the procedure, but still no gamepoprt...

Any clue?

Thanks in advance,

Afaik, Gameports were not supported much after XP SP2.
