You need to get 'dxtweak' by Logitech.. I think. It allows you to change a lot of things. James "Jet Thrust" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Hi all I downloaded a dll file (DINPUT.DLL) and pasted it into my sytem folder. This dll removed the 5% null zone on my steering wheel giving me really nice continuos steering. I recently formatted my hard disk and re-installed windows and tried to replace the dll but it dont work now :-( I dont understand, it is the same version of windows 98, same computer, same dll. It worked before but just wont work now. In the system directory there is a DINPUT.VXD as well as the DINPUT.DLL. These two files have the same modification dates and are maybe meant to work together somehow. The modified dll that I am trying to put in is about a year older. (Oct 98) and maybe doesn't work with the .VXD file. Does anyone know what the problem might be or how I can modify the dll that works. It is possible to modify with a HEX editor if I know what to modify. Any methods of getting rid of that poxy null zone would be much appreciated. Many Thanks Von Beagle
