Do you have the A1 USB adapter? if so you need to plug all components into that before you plug that into the usb slot. otherwise you get errors.

Shouldn't need drivers at all. If it is set up as 3 axis 4 button, that's all you need to do. What do you mean by "needs better"?

As has been said, the Gameport version has no drivers. In fact, no A1 Gear has drivers. Ideally you need to create a 'joystick' with 4 buttons and 3 axes and check the 'Is a Racing Wheel' (or words to that effect) checkbox. Save it as Advantage1 Wheel and then calibrate. That's it.

You need to consider also that this is a 10 year old device. It will work but you can't compare it to current devices.
