This isnt getting any replies in the hardware thread so I'll post it here.

How can I calibrate my joystick? I tried running the calibtation removal tool and it says it wasnt calibrated. In the joystick properties there is no tab to calibrate it either.

I have the newest direct x and drivers, Etc but it doesnt calibrate! And please dont suggest a different joystick. This is the only 1 I have and will be using.

I got rid of my logitech recently, and I'm never going back.  Saitek Cyborg Evo all the way, as airbus said.

I had SERIOUS problems calibrating the logitechs, it just wouldn't stick.

I have that exact joystick and it works perfectly.  Your j/s should have come with a disk, correct?  You should install it using the disk.  It should take you through a wizard to calibrate.

If you need more help just ask ;)

This is how i did mine.

1.  Insert Disk

2.  Click on the top 'Intstall now' button (install drivers and gaming softeware

3.  Follow instructions.

If this does not work, then i don't know what is wrong, but mine works perfectly ??? ;)

I've had two of those sticks and both of them failed after a few months.  On each of them I lost left/right bank.  It would bank ok left but not right.  The calibration routine verified that the responses wre not normal.  Loaded the software on another computer and got the same result.  There is a forum on Logitech's site and this problem has been reported many times.  I did like many others and got a Saitek.

Good luck,

Jim

Yep, I get the same loss of right hand axis (right banking) at randon, but very often - many times per hour of use.
