Like I said, I'm slow on the uptake...I lost a sentence or two in there
somehow:
was trying to say that I'd finally managed to finish every GPL track at
least once and was able to upload my not-so-stellar +100 results to GPL
Rank.... ;-)
Thanks. That's exactly what was wrong. Moving the slider for deadzone
to the far right is actually the setting for minimum deadzone.
Should have thought to try that, I suppose. At any rate, it's working
great now.

I am using a T2 steering wheel, but as far as I can remember, I had a similar
problem when I installed Viper Racing. The adjustment for the deadzone works in
the opposite from what appears to be the narrowest setting, so try setting it
to the opposite extreme and see what the effect is. Also verify that the
calibration of your joystick or wheel is correct and that you are getting full
range of motion, by recalibrating your joystick from the windows 98 control
panel.
OK, I'll admit that I'm a little slow on the uptake.
I finally bought myself a copy of GPL and Viper racing this past
month. I've been having a blast with GPL and even time(once I knock
about a minute and a half off that Ring time....)
My question pertains to Viper Racing, though. Although the setup
program allows for adjustment of the controller deadzone, I find that
even with the deadzone set to the absolute minimum and the steering
range set to the maximum, the cars are almost undrivable due to what
feels for all the world like a big deadzone and tiny steering range
(the little test bars that move on the setup page seem to confirm this
as their movement shows that Viper is not recognizing the full lateral
range of the joystick nor picking up fine movements right around the
center).
Is there something I'm missing? I'm using a CH Products USB
Combatstick and it works beautifully with GPL and all other racing
games I've tried thus far. One issue may be that Win98SE seems
to "automatically" recalibrate the stick every time I boot up (it's
never troubled me as it seems to do a very accurate and consistent job).
Thanks in advance for any help,

Perhaps you can try a setting up your joystick as a different brand and
model in win9x. I know that has worked for me fooling some games to make a
joystick work better in it.
