NO 15 pin gameport
available usb 2. ports

CH virtual pilot pro yoke and pedals w/ 15 pin male connector.

1.) What is the best way to connect these?

2.) Does FS2002 allow me to utilize the dual monitors, ie. power quadrant

1.) Buy a cheapish sound card and disable on-board sound (I assume that
you have on-board sound card otherwise you would already have a gameport).

2.) No Idea.

What about a usb adapter?

If you are in the UK checkout this on Maplin. If in the US you could
probably pick up something similar at Radio Shack.

http://www.maplin.co.uk
and type in UA22Y in the product search box,top right.

There are probably pin outs on your motherboard (if you have onboard
sound) to which you could connect the female end of a 15 pin gameport
via a ribbon cable but you would need the manual for your particular
board to find it.

Dang.That should be top left of course.

Get a PCI gameport card and install it. Hard to find. I tried the
Radio Shack gameport to USB adaptor, but it only activates 4 buttons and
no hat switches.

Yes it does.

Hope this helps,
