Oh the classic joystick, one of the ultimate staples of the computer gamer. Here is how you can calibrate your joystick.
| 1. | Make sure your joystick is correctly plugged into the computer and turned on (if wireless). I know it's basic but I have to say it. |
| 2. | Open the Control Panel. |
| 3. | Double click the Game Controllers link. |
| 4. | Find and single click your joystick in the list of controllers. If your joystick is not listed, make sure it is correctly attached and working. |
| 5. | With your joystick highlighted, click the Properties button under the list of controllers. |
| 6. | From the new pop-up window, click the Calibrate button under the Settings tab. |
| 7. | Follow all the directions of the wizard that appears and click Finish when done. |
| 8. | You can also test all the buttons and axes your joystick offers under the Test tab. Make sure all buttons and sliders work before relying on them in an application. |
