Windows 10: Nyko Air Flo game pad

Hi I've got a NYKO air flow game pad that's been running on windows 10 but all of a sudden the software has stopped working and after trying to start closes down and the game pad becomes useless as software not running any help would be appreciated before I have to throw a perfect game pad away.

Want to install NYKO Airflo EX game controller in Windows 10 machine.

Hello Alan & Connie,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

The Nyko Airflo PC controller was made for Windows 2000 and is compatible with Windows XP. Currently there are no drivers available for this controller. But you can try installing the driver in compatibility mode. Download the driver for Windows 2000
and follow the below steps to run it on compatibility mode.

• Right click on the setup file of the driver and select
  Properties.
  
• Select Compatibility Tab.
  
• Place a check mark next to Run this program in Compatibility mode and select the operating system accordingly from the drop down list
  
• Let the driver to install and then check the functionality.
  

For more information, you may also refer to the article on Make older programs compatible
with this version of Windows.

If you face any further issues, I would suggest you to get in touch with
Nyko support to know if there is any recent update on drivers for Windows 10.

Hope it helps.

Want to install NYKO Airflo EX game controller in Windows 10 machine.

Have the subject game controller, but its installation disk is only for Windows 2000 and XP. The NYKO site has nothing for this old controller. Before I trash it, is there an available driver for Windows 10.

 

How do I correct Nyko Airflo EX controller right analog stick behavior on Windows 10?

I have an old Nyko Air Flo EX which works great. With the exception that the right analog stick behaves incorrectly. After some digging this is what I've found:

• It's using HID-compliant Game Controller
  
• Hardware IDs:
  
  
• When Joy.Cpl Test is Idle
  
• Pressing Analog Stick Button (btn 13) also returns +1 on the Y-Axis
  
• Moving Analog stick -1 on X-Axis also returns +1 on the Y-Axis
  
• There actually seems to be a little play where it fires all sorts of axis values. Usually when traveling on a X-Axis move or stick button press down. Button 13.
  

Not sure if related:

• Right stick seems to be using axis 2 and 5 instead of 2 and 3
  

Things I've tried:

• Attempted Joy.Cpl Calibration [Did not work]
  
• Attempted looking for driver/support on Nyko website [Nothing there]
  
• E-mailed Nyko support [Unhelpful response] basically just said product is discontinued
  
• I followed some instructions which said to add regkeys for Axes\2 Attributes=00 00 00 01 00 35 00 and Axes\5 Attributes= 00 00 00 01 00 32 00 [Didn't seem to change much]
  
• I proceeded to read some more documentation on directinput and registry Axes override on Microsoft site here And usb.org docs. Maybe I didn't understand it correctly but, it didn't seem to modify behavior. I'm not sure if it has less effect if the device is being picked up by Xinput.
  

Things I'm not looking for:

• Mapping to keyboard keys
  
• Installing middleware applications to work around the issue
  

Thank you in advance for any help.
