Hazard script my friend.  It is the way to program your Saitek stick till Saitek gets off their collective butts, and makes a new programming utility.

What version of SGE are you using?  Make sure you have 3.0.  I use the 3.0 beta drivers, and they seem to work the best, and I don't have to screw with anything.

I tried moving to the Hazardscript and the other drivers, and it just screwed my computer up beyond belief.

Define screwing your computer beyond beleif.  The Hazard drivers are inherently less invasive than the SGE which integrates itself into explorer.

Hazard script does nothing to your system, and at worst, you would need to uninstall the joystick driver.

Be very very careful with the hazard drivers...why would I say that... Cause I installed them last night and they made my Win2k pro machine unbootable, in fact it screwed up the OS so bad safe mode wouldn't even launch..... Thank god for Drive copy
 I reloaded Win98 SE and dloaded the latest Saitek driver and had no problems setting up the stick mappings...Worked like a charm By11:00PM was flying and having a blast again...Didn't even care if I got shot down.... IS the first time in Aces High my Saitek stick ever worked...
