The Driving Wheel
1) Connect the wheel to one of the USB ports at the back of the PC. Windows will automatically detect the new hardware and launch the
new hardware wizard.
2) The Wizard will ask you where to look for the correct driver for the wheel. Choose the C drive (or the hard drive where Windows is
installed).
3) It should find the USB Human Interface Driver. Click Next and then Finish to complete the installation.
If the hardware installation wizard does not start automatically you can select the Start Menu/ Settings/ Control Panel/ Add Remove
Hardware option. You will need to select the USB Human Interface Device.
Once the driver has been installed it is advisable to calibrate the controller.
1) Open the Control Panel and double click the Game Controllers icon.
2) Click on Properties. Click the Settings tab and then click Calibrate. Follow the instructions to calibrate the controller. When you are
asked to move the handle in a complete circle you should turn the wheel as far as it goes from left to right and fully press the Gas and
Brake buttons several times. The controller does not have an axis 3 so please just click Next on that part.
Installing the Software
Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive. The installation should start automatically but if it does not, double click the Setup.exe file in
the CD-ROM folder. The onscreen instructions will take you through the rest of the set-up. Please choose the “Install Direct X 8.0” option if
it is not already installed on your machine. Choose the minimum installation option if you only have 250 MB of hard drive space. Choose the
maximum installation option if you have 450 MB of hard drive space. If you choose the minimum installation option you must leave the CD
in the CD-R0M while playing as the machine will access the sound files directly from there. Loading times will be longer in this case.
The maximum option will install high-resoluion textures. The minimum option will install low-resolution textures. This refers to the quality
of the pictures that are placed on the 3D objects in the 3D cities. You should choose high-resolution textures if you have a high powered
machine with a lot of memory. You should choose low-resolution textures if your PC configuration is quite low. A PC with anything above the
minimum requirements for Drive Across the AmericasTM should be able to perform adequately with high resolution textures installed,
However, if you find that the performance is too slow or that the loading time for the 3D cities is very long then you should reinstall the
program with low-resolution textures.
The serial number is printed on a sticker on the inside front cover of the manual.
