Windows 10: Windows 10 - What do the individual parts of the game controller calibration values in the...

Greetings!I am running Win-10 pro.I have a Saitek X52 joystick game controller that has a problem with the "twist" rudder axis where it doesn't show the full range of values, and the "center" is offset to the left of center. I replaced the rudder's potentiometer.I finally was able to get the calibration tool to resolve the limited range issue, but it's still offset to the left which makes playing games like MSFS-2020 extremely difficult.I discovered a site, https://superuser.com/a/1699020, that describes both where, and what the values do - somewhat.In my case, the relevant registr

BU0836X game controller won't calibrate

After updating from Windows 10 home to Windows 10 pro my BU0836X game controller cannot be calibrated. It shows up in the list of game controllers but when you click on properties to try and calibrate the device the box says it's a communications device
and calibrate is grayed out. Furthermore, this device worked fine before I updated to windows 10 pro!! I need this device as part of an experiment I've been working on for the last 5 years and I do not have time for this nonsense. I tried every single "fix"
I could find not one worked at all. I paid for the updated OS thinking it would be an improvement. Instead it set me back months. What is the problem and how can I fix this?

Controller Calibration Wizard is BROKEN

Hello--

I need some help. I don't get along with computers and am just a step or two above tech-illiterate so please allow for my idiocy. Apologies in advance if I come off as a bit peeved; I've been mucking about with my controller and computer for almost three hours now.

My hard/software: Windows 10, Project64 emulator, retrobit 64 tribute controller (single joystick, essentially the old N64 controller).

Not the problem: My controller is showing up under devices like it should. It interacts with the emulator just fine, except for calibration being absolutely necessary. I can access and run the calibration wizard.

The Problem: When I run the calibration wizard, it never goes through the steps where I calibrate the X and Y axes. It jumps straight to the Z axis, which I don't have and it does not register whatsoever. I just need to calibrate my single joystick, but the calibration wizard on my computer does not provide the proper steps to do so.

With my luck I won't be surprised if this is a never-before-encountered, one-in-a-million chance, unfixable problem. But please, please tell me that it's a simple fix and that I am just an idiot. Thanks in advance, folks.

Here's Hoping,
Belle
