40 a month from today

Quote from tristancliffe :

Unplug some of your other USB things, and restart your PC (with as little plugged in as possible). Then try it.

USB (apparently) takes extra voltage/current to initialise/recognise a device than it takes to run a device, and if your USB ports cannot provide the required amount then it won't work. Unplug free's signal.

This is how it was explained to me, and it worked with my Momo when it used to fail to initialise. Whether or not it's REALLY the reason is a different matter though.

well I only have a usb mouse plugged in and still nothing after reboot after unplug, every other usb device works ok, wheel worked perfectly the day before. I'd say it was something wrong with the actual product. Matrixi that is the same noise my wheel made when turning it, im sure on the box it says its quiet or quieter, thats a bloomin joke

my g25 is dead, no power lights on shifter, windows doesnt recognise it's been attached to the pc. refund for me and buy a set of brd pedals like i should have bought in the 1st place. power supply works in my dfp so not a power supply problem, seems to be the wheel electronics that are screwed

If it did not ask to restart after installation then there is a software problem with the G25.

Tried on my two computers on one it did ask to restart and on the other after several tries it wont and the FF is better in the one that asked than the other.

my feedback ingames was very weak, then all of a sudden its more powerful, wheel now feels very like a formula force, something is up software wise. update: uninstalled again, deleted registry entries, removed logitech folders, restart pc, put in cd, reinstall software, stick in usb, doesnt do the found new hardware probe, software finds the wheel, doesnt ask for restart of pc, do one anyway, on restart comes up new hardware found logitech g25, stays for a few secs then another box pops up saying new hardware found driving force usb, what is goin on?, in game controllers its saying its a g25.

Quote from Gunn :

Really the brake and clutch should be further apart. The distance between the brake and throttle is fine, could be even greater and it would be better. But then Logitech would have needed a bigger box.

its fun at the start of a race and your hurtling down into turn 1 and you start braking and wonder why your not slowing down, doh, foots still on the clutch, ahhh watch out im coming through

mine never wanted a restart of windows after installing the logitech software, I also found that use the clear calibration tool from logitech allways comes up saying there is no calibration data saved and must have been deleted. I think a gaming software update is required as it also says my wheel is a driving force pro when installing the wheel then changes to g25.

Quote from DanneDA :

I know whats going to happen once I get to T1 the first time i run this the H-gate: Press down the wrong pedal and go into the wall. I just hope I wont have anyone in front of me when that happens.

yep, been there done it many times, foot on the clutch when it should be on the brake

mine is officially confirmed as complete,, g25 is definately on its way, only bit im not looking forward to is the noise of vans coming up and down the street all day and expecting every one to be the delivery guy. thats going to be hours of tortureillepall

Quote from Breadstick3000 :

Checked this before ordering, gets sent Parcel Force 24 hour.

your online status changed yet, mine still saying being picked, dispatch today, hope ther just useless at updating the website and it is on it's way.

good to hear, I would be dissappointed if it didnt feel a step up from the dfp

Quote from spankmeyer :

Previous wheels:

1) MS Precision Pro
2) Logitech Driving Force Pro
3) The unholy alliance of MS pedals and DFP wheel as Logitech's el cheapo plastiko pedals crapped themselves finally


First impressions of G25 and incoherent babbling:

"You sure this is the right box?"

I was expecting a lot bigger box, but behold - the G25 was wrapped snuggly inside when I tore her clothes off and pushed my hands insid-- nevermind. Ahh the delicious smell of new electronics; wrapped up in cold steel, smooth leather and [insert sexy word] plastic.

Eyebrow raising letters on the sealed driver envelope inside: "Rev. 0.5"

[getting bored, must continue later]

Anywhoo. In my first LFS session with the G25 I nailed a new pb, but more importantly I was a lot more consistent and driving fast felt easier. The G25's accuracy, sharp inputs, low noise and very solid construction makes DFP feel really B-quality.

99p delivery, you'll be waitin a while, mine is on next day delivery

I see html didn't work, order status page saying its being picked now.

gameplay uk recieved 10 g25's today and I was one of the 1st to pre order so mine is being picked and shipped today, now I gotta wait for it to arrive, will be up and down everytime I hear a van come down my street which there is hundreds of everyday

hope its not going to be a case of some retailers getting and some not, I'll be fuming if gameplay uk don't get them in this week.

Quote from Plague of Craig :

recieved my g25 today from darkplanets : ) but i cant use it till the end of the month as its a birthday pres from my girlfriend lol

thats a long wait

no doubt the uk will be last.

Quote from Rtsbasic :

Just a thought, the power adapter doesn't look much like any of the ones I have for my other Logitech stuff, maybe there was a delay in sourcing a sufficent number of them? We know there was a mixup with them a few weeks back in Australia.

Edit: £160 from Logi. Damn, its tempting. Better than the £185 odd I sent Gameseek. Will definately switch the order if its not here next week for some reason.

and by that time logitech will have sold out, I should have cancelled mine weeks ago, but allways gave it another chance as release was put back 2 weeks each time, and thought oh what if i cancel then they do get them in.

I just spoke to gameplay uk and they were surprised to hear others are now selling the wheel, they said they were to get them at sametime as other retailers, seems like logitech are picking who gets supplies. wonder if theres backhanders going down

I'll be boaking if mine isnt in my hands by next friday, by the time i'd get my money refunded from gameplay uk and cheque to clear, they'd be sold out everywhere that did get them, fingers crossed gameplay will have one for me.

logitech uk website saying g25 is immediately available

a french website has them instock and delivered to customer on rsc forum, theyre going to be here shortly but the question now though is which retailers are going to recieve them? not every retailer will get them I'd say, just pray that theyre on ther way to gameplay uk

i wouldnt mind it being out 2 months from now if thats when it was stated as comin out, but its the constant date changin that gets my back up.

I'm just praying mine comes in 8 days like it says its due to

was checking some foriegn sites out and found one that listed g25 as being availble 17.01.2007, this is not looking good at all. now if they were shipped into europe in october as one logi guy says, why on earth would they be available 2-3 months later is baffling me.

I do mind waiting when a logitech employee posting in racesimcentral say they have been shipped to europe, yet im hearing that we'll be lucky to see them in 2007, someone at logitech needs a kick up the backside.

Quote from speedykev :

I have a bad feeling we are not going to get the G25 until Christmas. :wmann3:

yep, if we're lucky, I'd rather get a realistic date and then know it will be ther, but they change it every bloody week and im eagerly anticipating it and then get pissed off that it wont be comin, my patience is waring very thin, gonna end up not buying it. feckin bunch of useless wan88rs
