I have a LWF wheel (no FF) and I am just wondering one thing. Whenever I
set the wheel to separate axis in the Windows game controller screen, AND in
the Logitech wingman profiler screen, the wheel gets set back to combined
axis whenever I reboot W98. Is there anyway to make the damn thing stay
separate at all times? Sometimes I forget to redo and it causes me
headaches when I go to play Porsche or something as it screws up the
controls.....

I noticed this too with my LWFF GP. I heard there might
be new drivers (3.62? but not sure what I have, I know
it's 3.6 something - it's the version that came with the
wheel). I have been meaning to send Logitech an e-mail
about this.
Fortunately I spent a year developing a natural tendency
to go to the Game Controllers menu and fix up everything
before I fire up a game. You see, I had a Logi joystick
and CH Pro pedals - both USB - and for some reason the
stick would always seize joystick ID 1. So when I played
Nascar 3, the stick would control steering, gas, and brakes.
But if I went to the game controllers/advanced beforehand
and switch the joystick IDs, then N3 would recognize
the CH pedals as gas/brakes, and the joystick as steering.
So this became a natural habit. Looks like I must maintain
it (manually enable dual axis before firing up any game).
Interestingly, GPL, also a Papyrus product supporting
multiple controllers, and older than N3, supported my
combination with no monkeying around beforehand.
Oh well
