i am looking for config.sys and autoexec.bat samples that will help me set up the thinkpad to run a joystick. thanks.

Can't help with that specific model. For my drivers, you don't need to do anything at all in CONFIG.SYS. You don't need to do anything in AUTOEXEC.BAT, either, unless you want the joystick to be "permanent".

You should only need to install two programs: the host controller driver (USBUHCIL or USBUHCI) and the joystick driver (USBJSTIK). I suggest you start by reading the documentation for those particular programs (the appropriate parts of USBINTRO.DOC). It's impossible to say what "special" configuration options you may need to enter (if any) to get the programs to work correctly. You should probably also read the parts of USBINTRO that pertain to USBHOSTS & THRUST, since you may need those to help you do some troubleshooting and figure out which options you may need to use.
