Honestly, I went through the whole shebang to get my old F-15 stick working again on my P4 system. I Think it was a suncom model. Well, I went through all the trouble and when I upgraded to a Quad Core, I didn't even bother with the new MOBO to try and get the joystick working. I bought a "cheap" Saitek Aviator for around $17 and was greatly pleased. The additional buttons and throttle controls more than made up for the difference in the feel of the stick, plus the "rotation" axis allows analog rudder control, it made X-wing much more enjoyable.
If you want a REALLY good joystick setup: check out their X-52 setup.
