    Need to edit deadzones of a controller

    Hey all,

    Anyway here we go, i have a saitek p2500 rumble (sometimes named cyborg rumble or just plain 2500) and really have the need to increase the deadzone of the left analog sticks' axes. I would be all for changing a configurations file or just using a third party app i just want to stop veering to the left!

    Unfortunately even with windows default drivers in the game controllers and then in advanced there is a custom saitek control panel that does not allow you to edit anything other than the rumble settings. Thanks anyway though.

    Saitek usedto have a deadzone utility but I'm not sure that it still works with th elatest drivers.
    Also, when they bring out SD6 (supposedly turn of the year) that's going to include axis customisation, response curves etc. but I don't know ifthe P2500 will be supported as it's an older controller these days.
