The sound card is a sound galaxy by aztech and the joystick is a standard two
axis two button type, i also have a per4mer wheel which does the same. the games
it does it on are collin mcrae rally and need4speed 3. noticed today that on the
rally championship by the q range the joystick works fine, so i am assuming that
it is possibly a driver problem somewhere.
