RE: Fms Cable Interference !
I do not have a picture to show, but try the following:
Go to "Parallel Port Joysticks" under "Control Panel".
Click on "LPT1" under "Configured Joysticks"
Click on "Options"
Ensure all "Runtime Debug Options" are cleared (not ticked)
As far as I can remember, this debug option will give out a beep via your speakers when there is a signal present.
