1) ok: what frequency does it run on? It might be interfering with a cordless phone, microwave oven, TV, other wireless stuff etc.

2) it is NOT your PSUs fault.

_DO_ try it on someone elses PC to se if it is faulty, that is my guess it to why it is not working.

Where did you get it from? because you could get it swapped for a much better corded one.

again do you have a cordless mouse or k/b?

I wouldn't have a clue what frequency it is running on. I did think of interferance, but I removed my cordless phone from the jack point.and unplugged other appliances.
And it worked without any problems for about three months.
I bought it from ASCENT a few months ago. I'm not sure if it is under warranty or not, but I'm not planning on claiming. It only cost about $100 and it's hardly worth packing it up and sending it back etc.
I'm as sure as I can be that something has gone wrong with the stick itself.
I have no other cordless things. Mouse and keyboard and modem are all USB.

I notice that you do not seem to have tried uninstalling the MS joystick driver. It is possible that they may be in conflict, so perhaps as a last resort you could try uninstalling both joysticj drivers, running your favourite reg cleaner (or not, as you may choose) then reinstalling the Logitech.

It does sound a little like an occasional software conflict. After that, for greater reliability, I'd use a gameport device in future. Personally I believe that using USB connections for specialised devices is always a bit of a compromise.

IMHO, nothing beats hard wiring to a dedicated hardware input connection for outright reliability and minimum conflicts.

321582 2005-02-05 23:50:00 I've replaced my J/S drivers about six times. At present I am using the latest driver from the Logitech site. I have also run Registry Mechanic (registered version).
BUT this morning I installed the Logitech software on my other computer. The HP pavillion. It is as it came from the shop. Just XP with SP1 and the usual "free" software. The J/S did NOT work.
I would say that this proves beyond doubt that it is a faulty stick.
Thanks for all the suggestions,
Jack
