There is also a wc4 usb patch available @topnailas. But no idea how good it works. See here:

But cause you are all on Gameport, I don't think that helps you much.
AND to known Joystick to work with WC4: My MS Sidewinder Precision Pro works great for all my WC games (except Armada, but that's a DOSBox bug), but for others it doesn't at all. So although that is very strange, there seems to be no Joystick that works with 100% guarantee
To the Logitech Interceptor: Yes, that Joystick is nice
My m8 has got the same. - And an even bigger problem: His Mobo (NForce2) has got no gameport, and when using another soundcard (and switching off the onboard one) the sound works great - but not the Gameport, no matter what OS
And no, the Joystick is still working on other PCs, and the PCI soundcard gameport works great on other PCs as well. So now his Interceptor is just lying arround
Oh, and one thought what MIGHT cause troublefor that one: the 3 coolie hats (sp?) Just a guess...
