During an online game tonight with regen I got killed and when I regened the plane was uncontrollable.I exited game and looked at joystick calibration, it was off so I recalibrated which would not work,the X and Y axis would not stick in the same place and moved out of sync with stick movements. Next tried to removed Saitek Cyborg 3d Digital from controller list and readded it, this time it recalibrated ok.
Started up SDOE but still no good, elevators, ailerons jammed at full on and rudder jammed at center. Back in contoller test showed calibration wrong again.
Next replaced Saitek with two old analogs using splitter, old setup which used to work fine, found exactly same probs again.
Ran Dxdiag and found following error,
-------------

Device Name: Three axis, two button

Key 'HKCR\CLSID\{92187326-72B4-11d0-A1AC-0000F8026977}\ProgID' is missing.
Dxdiag suggested reinstalling DirectX
This I did with DirectX 7a, my current version.
Tried again same result
Tried Panzer Elite just in case it was SDOE, same result.
Every time I start a directX game the Joystick calibration is screwed. I can recalibrate after removing the controller and adding it again but cannot get it to work in a DirectX game.
Any suggestions, I cant try raider's P51 beta 3 out until I can sort this out.
