If your control option is set to wheel, change it to joystick/keyboard, or vice versa.

Before you invest in a new sound card get a dedicated game card Thrustmaster and CH both make one. I use the CH card and it solved very similar problems. Edward

It is possible that your bus speed is too high for your soundcard's gameport. When you calibrate it in ICR2 or N2, what are the numbers you get? You may need a speed adjustable game controller card, so you can calibrate the gameport for the speed of your machine. If the problem is in a DOS box in Windows, you might want to get Thrustmaster's Pro Panel and see if this will help your calibration problems.
