I've also had this problem, but use Quickjoy to switch between a C-H
Flightstick Pro and my TSW wheel. For me, it does seem to remember my
calibration for each device, so no problems there. However, I was
thinking about getting a new USB stick (especially since my monitor has
a USB hub in it and a connector on the front), and was wondering how
this "game controller" would work in conjunction with still having the
game port. IMO, the way that game controllers are handled in general is
a major weak point of the Win98 support. It's better than it used to
be, but still has problems.
