I cannot get any 2 of my sidewinder buttons to act simultaneously. For
example, I have one button set to accelerate, whereas another is set to
slide up. If I press both, only 1 action occurs; the other is ignored.
So, if I'm moving forward and want to slide up, I have to stop moving
forward, then slide up, then stop sliding, then move forward again. Isn't
this annoying ? Anyone know how to get around this, other than use the
keyboard, which, by the way, provides exactly this kind of functionality ?

I am using DirectX 7.0a and version 3.02 of the MS Sidewinder drivers and
config software. Also am using the latest patch for d3.

Thx in advance !!
