Interesting toy... "Gravis Phoenix"?

Actually, the joystick failed on my PC: the PS/2 connections disabled my
keyboard, and the DB-15 connector blocked-out my sound card. Any thoughts
on all of this?

..Just picked up for pocket change at a yard sale: a Gravis Phoenix
joystick/game pad combo (SN: 4794, Made in Canada, FCC ID: HYN1010A). Its
old
enough that it has, aside from the normal DB-15 game port adapter, a split
unversal adapter for an AT or PS/2 keyboard port. The adapter is unique, I
think, in the fact that it appears fully reversable to work with either. I
plan to test it on my PC, but I wondered if anyone could point me in the
direction of schematics, user manuals, drivers or installation packages.
Any
assist greatly appreciated...

Cheers!
