Xbox 360 Controller Issues?

[Eleven13]

Hey everyone,

I'm running Hitman Absolution on Windows 7 and using a wired Xbox 360 controller. I've had the controller for a while now and haven't had any issues with it in other games (Dark Souls, Final Fantasy, Splinter Cell, etc).

However, I'm getting a really weird problem in Hitman where I'll temporarily lose control of 47. Like I'll be walking for instance with the left analog stick then I'll want to stop and let go of the stick, but he'll just keep moving for a few seconds. Or sometimes if I'm looking around with the right analog stick, the camera will just keep spinning in circles for a few seconds even after I've let go. And sometimes the sticks just won't respond at all for a split second and then finally register.

It makes it really annoying for sneaking up on people and just playing in general, does anyone know about this issue or how I can try to fix it? From what I know I have the latest 360 drivers installed and like I said before, this controller usually doesn't give me any issues.

Thanks!

Turn down the sensativity of the controller, if you can do that from in game.
Hitman games have a really touchy "Dead Zone", for subtle movements.
If you can't do it from in game, there should be a location in devices to change the sensativity of said 'dead zone'.
Dead Zone = Location with sticks that does not read as movement.
