Title: A Cry For HELP! Post by NNewcomb on May 18th, 2011 at 1:00am
I recently experienced an issue with my joystick. Yesterday afternoon, I was using it and it worked absolutely fine, but later on, I went to use it and it did not work at all nor has it ever since. It is a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. Theres is no damage to the cord, or the joystick it self. Nothing is loose or feels abnormal, it just completely stopped working. It is only a few months, has anyone else had this issue? How do you I fix this?
Please help!! |

This has happened to me before. Plug it into a different USB port, and blow into the plug to clear any dust/particles.

If you plug it into a different USB port and it still doesn't work, try to reinstall the driver. I think you have the installation CD. If you don't find it try to download it here http://www.logitech.com/en-us/441/291?section=downloads&bit=&osid=14

Thanks for your help guys! But I fixed it! ;D All I had to do was restart my computer. Phew... I didn't want to have to buy a new joystick with a trade-off of a CS aircraft!

There is definitely something crazy with the Logitech 3D Pro Extreme joysticks. Mine does crazy thing all the time. I must be lucky though if I unplug it and plug it back in or move it to another USB port, it behaves itself for a couple of weeks. After that, it misbehaves and I have to do it again! ::)

I've never had that problem, but it's good to know how to fix it in case it ever occurs.
It would suck to have to buy a new one. I remember when I first bought FSX I saw it was only $25... then I looked at the price of the joystick. ;D |
