Odd Controller problem(Xbox)
I'm having an odd problem with my "Trick" controller. The right analog stick seems to ecperience "slowdown" in Halo.
After playing deathmatch for a short time(the only time this controler gets used) it seems to slow down when pushe dto the right. Push left and you will spin a fast as allowed, push right and it is about half as fast.
But if I shut down and restart my Xbox it works fine, this happens regardless of which port it's using.

The Trick controller has to be calibrated when the X-box is turned on. Just rotate the two analog sticks in a circular motion when you power up the X-box. I had the same problem and then I looked at the instructions for the controller and this fixed it.
BTW, other than this little annoyance, the Trick controller is a very good 3rd party X-box controller.

That figures, I thought it was strange that if I reset it it worked great. I never thought about reading the instructions for it since it was just a controler and I had no intention of using the programmable function.
I agree though, it's a nice little controller. It's the one I use when playing deathmatch.
You don't happen to have a scanner to scan that page of the manual? I have no clue if I still have my instruction booklet.
