Help! MS Wheeel playing up in Test Drive Unlimited

[Surfr]

Right I've only just got my xbox 360 and wheel today and I am having problems with the wheel. It has paired with the xbox and I can use the d-pad to navigate menus. The wheel turns the cars wheels and the pedals make the car break and accelerate. Heck, even the padels change up and down. But when I acccelerate, the car goes nowhere. I just seem to be spinning the wheels in any gear I select. I mean it goes *nowhere* I tried downloading a new hardcode mode for the game which is supposed to work with the wheel, but this hasn't changed anything. Any ideas?

Well a few reboots of the 360 seemed to fix it. I've had to turn the force feedback off though as it is bloody shocking! Lets hope Forza 2, PGA4 and others are better than this.

Not really played TDU with the wheel much. You are plugging it into the mains thought right?

Used mine on Forza 2 trying to drive a tuned Sagaris, bloody hard that was. Use it for rFactor on the PC mostly though.

I was thinking about getting one of these specifically for Forza 2, any thoughts ? Is it worth it ?

Definately!

I assume you mean the wireless one with Force Feedback? If so I must say that it has to be the most impressive wheels I have ever used. Although it is hard to get used to, when you get going with it it is possible to shave quite a few seconds of many PB times with the pad!
