@ james.miller, I bought an xbox 360 controller to play Tomb Raider and it works great. However, whenever i try it in a racing game like Evolution GT or NFSMW and when i steer left or right it keeps going left or right even though the joystick is back in the center. From then on I cant get the cars to go straight I have to keep on pressing left and right really quick. Any ideas on how to fix this? is this normal? I have even tried the caliberation process and that dont fix it either

its the drivers. you need the XBCD drivers as a said - the windows drivers have no option to set deadzones which is vital with sensitive analogue sticks.

cheers mate. I'll try those drivers when I get home from work

Drake5 · 25 Apr 2006 at 15:56

Not bad for £25, ill be getting some money soon so thats when ill be buying one

Don't buy it for £25, you can get it for £17.99 at a place we can't mention.

bingo bongo

also, try this profile for the drivers, it has the deadzones set up ready

sunlitsix · 25 Apr 2006 at 22:06

those drivers wont work

i install them, reconnect the pad. the message pops up in the corner saying new device etc. go to the config utility then doesnt detect anything :confused:

I've got a Logitech Rumblepad 2, its just like a PS2 controller - think it was about £20.

Only use it for TOCA 3 but it does the job

Will the wireless pad with the play and charge kit work or not?

If so I would rather buy this and be able to use it to charge battery and also use it on the PC.
