Saitek X52 + VISTA + "Z" keeps getting spammed.........
« on: January 02, 2009, 12:23:27 PM »
running game, open up chat box, or clip board with typable sections....... heck even putting in my Screen Name (which is set to remember me) gets spammed with zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzz

No problems prior to Vista.  Have Latest Drivers, Calibrated and works fine otherwise, dont have this issue in other games. When I hit one of the buttons in the stick (doesnt work with the keyboard) it stops..... then I have to backspace to delete them all.

Any suggestions ??

Are you using the Saitek profile editor? Have you mapped z (probably zoom) to be pushed when using for example a slider on your controller? My first suggestion would be to check the profile and the positions of the sliders.

Sounds like you have a button sticking on your stick. In this case I would look at whatever button you use to turn zoom on and off with. (z)
