wheel moves when not playing game?

my Logitech momo wheel moves during bootup, before I even start a game, what causes this, and how to stop it? punch

Your bootup process is sending a signal to that USB port to test it. "Punch" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:mmy_9.15305$[email hidden]... > my Logitech momo wheel moves during bootup, before I even start a game,what > causes this, and how to stop it? > > punch > >

Mine will also move and start seesawing at some points as well. -- Steve "You'll have to speak up, I'm wearing a towel" "Sim Peter" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:L2z_9.189$[email hidden]... > Your bootup process is sending a signal to that USB port to test it. > > "Punch" <[email hidden]> wrote in message > news:mmy_9.15305$[email hidden]... > > my Logitech momo wheel moves during bootup, before I even start a game, > what > > causes this, and how to stop it? > > > > punch > > > > > >

If it moves all the way to one side and then to the other, it's auto calibrating. You can tell it to stop in control panel. -- Slot Tweaks & Reviews www.slottweak.com "Punch" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:mmy_9.15305$[email hidden]... > my Logitech momo wheel moves during bootup, before I even start a game, what > causes this, and how to stop it? > > punch > > --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I was done on the ground rewiring the computer, had the wheel on the box, and when it rebooted the wheel basically shot off the box and into my head ( I was sorta laying under the desk), I grabbed the thing and it turned the otherway and smacked me again! Punch

You mean... you got a punch in the face? If the wheel moves completely to one side, then the other, then re-centers and stops moving, it means the game had it do that to autocalibrate. By the way if that doesn't happen you should move the wheel fully left and fully right after all leds have come on because the wheel needs to be calibrated every time a game starts or the wheel gets unplugged... If it shakes a bit like a electric razor, then just move it all the way to one side and the other and things should be OK. Oh and make sure it is attached firmly to the table before connecting the power and starting a game :)

Happened to me too. Unluckily my ballbearing converted wheel has a punch like Mike Tyson :-( JensSchumi On Fri, 31 Jan 2003 19:46:16 -0500, "Punch" <[email hidden]> wrote:
