My mistake, it seems there is no adapter compatible with Microsoft SideWinder, that's must be a particular joystick

Happy flight

(HAD TO EDIT as it's not liking the ebay links...)

From what I've read on this thread, as much as it pains Me....you MAY end up having to buy a whole new stick

Personally, I would recommend the Saitek X45. While it IS an older model Stick & throttle, I've been using it for many years and I absolutely love it. GRANTED, most of My flying is done in jumbos, I've found it's great for just about any type of aircraft. You've got plenty of buttons you can program and several HAT switches (allowing for even less keyboard use). - 1st link

The cheapest I found on amazon was $89.99+ $7.49 shipping. Ebay was a LOT less at $24.99, + $10.shipping but it won't be listed for much longer. This one though is only stick & throttle. No manual, no disk. - Ebay item 322399578359

I DID find one that was a bit more at $55 on ebay that has everything. Throttle, stick, manual (which I never got btw lol), and the CD for it. (3rd link) oh and free shipping.

I HOPE this is helpful, and I'm sorry you're going through this!
