i have an analog joystick.4-button with hat.<BR>after caliberating it in game controller of win98SE i found that the joystick does not move completely all the way to the right (ie the crosshair does not touch the right side wall of the window even after bending the stick completely to the right).<BR>as a result when i play XWA the ship which i am flying does not turn sharply to the right.<BR>how do i correct this problem

This si a typical problem I found with analog joysticks. What I find works best is to not really follow the calibratin instructions! Do not move the joystick around multiple times only once, and do not move it into the farthest corner, this usually helps a bit...<P>------------------<BR>Murphy was an optimist!<BR><B>I</B> am a pessimist!<BR>Webmaster of the <A HREF="http://www.xwaupgrade.com" TARGET=_blank>X-Wing Alliance Upgrade Project</A>
