EAW Control 2000 has a setting for joystick. Use it. Also check your joystick settings in Start/Control Panel/Game Controllers . EAW will use ONLY the first joystick entry. Calibrate it. Most likely, the fault lies in a line in the EAW.INI file. In the [Controls] section, there is a line; Windows Joystick=0 or Joystick=1. If you have the number zero ( 0 ) there, change it to one ( 1 ). It should handle much better. Most joystick problems in EAW are because of a zero on this line. Save the change to the EAW.INI file and exit. Give it a try. If the problem persists, try uninstalling and re-installing your joystick, according to the manufacturers directions. If you still have problems, contact the manufacturer of your joystick, or try posting a question on the SimHQ.com EAW Forum. Help is always available on the EAW forum there.
