TROUBLESHOOTING
Q: I connect my PC USB Gun, but nothing happens. Windows doesn't detect it.
A: Try a different USB Port on your computer. Remember that the USB Gun will only
work on Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows ME, Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
Older versions of Windows are not supported. Also make sure that your USB ports
are not disabled in your system BIOS. Finally, make sure you have the latest
version of DirectX installed on your system.
Q: Windows detects the PC USB Gun, but when I shoot I can never hit a target.
A: The gun is most likely not calibrated properly. Different games use different
screen resolutions, and you may have to calibrate the gun as soon as you get
into a specific game. Follow the calibration instructions in the manual.
Q: The gun was working previously, but has now stopped functioning.
A: Check your USB cable connection. The most common cause for a sudden loss of
functionality is a loose cable.
Q: The PC USB Gun was working in one game, but it won't work in another.
A: Again, this has to do with screen resolution. Every time the screen resolutions
changes, you have to re-calibrate the gun. Follow the calibration instructions
in the manual.
Q: If I shoot towards the corners of the screen, sometimes the shots do not
register.
A: You have to make sure that your desktop area is maximized so that the actual
screen image is taking up all of your monitor's area. You should not have any
black border around your screen image. You may have to manually adjust your
monitor's vertical and horizontal settings to maximize your screen image. Check
your monitor's manual for instructions.
