I've broken two Logi wheels..one LWFF by trying to 'Fix' it and make it
better...don't ask me to help build a house...and the 2nd was a very nice
Momo that started making terrible grinding noises. So now I'm back on the
old NPD2 Thrustmaster and it works just fine in split axis(no FF of course)
:( And this is with Win98se not XP.
With the TM profiler, make sure you load up the GPL 3 axis preset. You
should be able to test it in windows and in the profiler. THen in GPL make
sure you choose the DIRECTX controller box, not the Papyrus
Alternate/generic method. Finally make sure you are seeing all your axis
in GPL, there might be an arrow at the bottom of the calibration screen.
Good Luck
