Is there anybody who can help me? I have installed VISTA Red Baron on my pc (XP2000)
and I did not used Dosbox to run it because everything is working but the joystick does not.
The game refuses to accept the joystick in the "preferences": it seems that it can only be
played by mouse.
A lot of years ago, I had this same game and I remember I was able to play it with the
joystick...
I NEED HELP ! ! !
Thanks.

Obviously, not everything is working. So go and use DosBox.

Dos games don't have joystick support when you run them in Windows. If you use dosbox then it should work.
