Unwanted Deadzones on MSFFW wheel

Apologies for the new thread, but the other one didn't seem pertinent any more with regard to buying advice. Thanks to everyone who suggested (and offered files) for drivers. I managed to get the 4.0 profiling app running, it isn't a clean install but enough to get the configuration running in windows so at least my pedals work as was intended! A new problem, though. I have deadzones which I can't get rid of. If I turn the wheel 90 degrees in either direction from centre I'm manipulating the steering, but the remaining 45 degrees have no effect. I can't remember this being a problem with the XP driver. Even the small car in the 'test' area of the Game Controllers menu exhibits the same problem - moving through 135 degrees with only 90 lock. Can anyone help? ++ Fillyourboots
