Racing wheel working on Win 8 not on Win 7

MrFluffyPants

Hey there Guys,

I have this Xbox 360 Thrustmaster Ferrari 458 Italia racing wheel laying around and I wanted to start using it on my PC with Windows 7.

Now I am able to use the wheel on my Laptop with Windows 8 without any problems or even having to download the drivers.

I downloaded the xbox 360 drivers from the MS site and it does seem to recognize my wheel but it is under the other devices tab with a yellow triangle in the device manager.

Is there a way to extract the drivers from my Windows 8 and import them into Windows 7? Or some other way to make the wheel work under Windows 7?

Let me know!
