Notes:

1. This is the first official release of the USB game controller drivers.
   These files have been in beta for a long time (close to a year) so 
   although the release number is 1.00, the drivers have been tested 
   thoroughly on many systems.

2. These drivers are compatible ONLY with Windows 95 OSR 2.1.  Using them
   with Windows 98 will have unpredictable results.  Please refer to the
   README.TXT file for more details.
 
3. Version 1.03 of TMUSB.SYS addresses a problem with system shutdown
   while the device is connected.  When previous versions of the driver
   were used, under certain conditions the system would appear to freeze
   during a shutdown, however pushing a stick button or moving the control
   handle would allow shutdown to continue.  This version of TMUSB.SYS
   fixes the problem so no control movements are necessary.

4. To identify the internal version numbers for ThrustMaster .SYS and
   .VXD drivers, use the Windows Explorer to select the files, right
   click on the file icon, then select Properties from the right click
   menu.  The file version number, along with other version resource
   information, is displayed on the "Version" tabbed dialog.
