Using Hori Fighting Stick 3 on PC: Driver Compatible?

  • Thread starter Edgardo

In summary, the conversation discusses the use of a Hori fighting stick 3, which is meant for Playstation3 but the speaker wants to use it for PC. However, when connected to the PC, the stick is recognized by Windows XP but does not work in the gamecontrollers menu. The issue is also discussed on a forum, with some users successfully using a driver but only on 64-bit systems. The speaker asks if there is a way to make the driver work on 32-bit systems or if they need to program a USB driver themselves. Various drivers are suggested but the speaker reports that they do not work.

I have the Hori fighting stick 3 (arcade stick) that has a USB connection. It is meant to be used with the Playstation3 but I'd like to use it for the PC.

When I connect it to the PC via USB it is recognized by Windows XP but in the "gamecontrollers menu" no button or stick movement is recognized.

Now, others have the problem too (http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=144479 ) but only few of the people
have managed to use the arcade stick with the help of a driver. The problem is that the driver seems to work only on 64Bit Windows systems.

Is there any way to make the driver work on 32bit systems? Or do I have to program a USB driver myself?

I tried both drivers but unfortunately they don't work. The fs3drv.zip allegedly only works on 64 bit systems. Thanks anyway.
