Because of the deadzone problem in F1 2001, I'm using DXTweak to correct it. Does using DXTweak affect/screw-up the deadzones/sensitivity of other racing games like GPL, NFS or Viper Racing? I was also wondering if these are optimal settings. I have the Act Labs Performance Pedals and have the following settings: Z = 0, 256, 512 R = 0, 256, 512 U = 0, 256, 512 Does EA know about this problem? Why don't they fix it? Seeing how F1 2002 is coming out soon, they might just drop support for 2001 and not fix it at all, I really hope they do something about it before they move on.

I think you should set all the deadzones on 0 with DXTweak and only use deadzone options in the games themself. I do it like this and it works fine. Except in F1 2001, I have to select single-axis to get rid of the deadzone, but I'm convinced that's a problem of F1 2001. Andre

You might want to consider using ctfj from www.stickworks.com instead. You can then create custom profiles for each game. I used DXTweak once and it screwed up the settings for my other controllers. ctfj is the way to go IMO.
