Dead space 2 Mouse issue

[Upright]

I just bought Dead Space 2 and when I get to the main menu the menu moves off screen and I cannot click on any options. If I move my mouse down the menu comes into view. I managed to get the game start and in game my camera is spinning around as if the mouse is being held in one direction. Does anyone know what could be casuing this? I read in this post http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1744928 that there is a fix but unfortunately the link in the thread for the fix is a dead link.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I found the fix this worked for me it was found in this thread http://steamcommunity.com/app/47780/discussions/0/882964580381254494/

The fix that is well known for the Steam version is this:

1. Browse to \Steam\steamapps\common\Dead Space 2 folder.
2. Open the "joypad_example" text file.
3. Replace both "Z-Axis" and "Z-Rotation" (found at the bottom) with "Off". Save As "joypad" and close the file. Should be all fixed on next launch.

Or simply unplug any USB joypad/stick/wheel you're not using (although this isn't possible if the keyboard is the problem ;) )

Though I haven't experience a problem with my mouse while playing DS2, thanks for the info. I'm sure it might be useful to someone who has a similar issue. We need more people like you.

Wanted to post the cause and the simple cure for this in case you still have this problem or others have it. Its simply a conflict with another game controller. Unplug any other controllers like a pad or a joystick. Will fix it instantly.

He adquirido el juego en Steam y he tenido el problema de los menus desplazados y el cursor del raton inestable, se ha arreglado como dice en el post os comento para los que no entendais el ingles:

1. Browse to \Steam\steamapps\common\Dead Space 2 folder.
2. Open the "joypad_example" text file.
3. Replace both "Z-Axis" and "Z-Rotation" (found at the bottom) with "Off". Save As "joypad" and close the file. Should be all fixed on next launch.

1. Ir a la carpeta \Steam\steamapps\common\Dead Space 2
2. Hacer copia del archivo "joypad_example" con copiar y pegar por si os lo cargais.
3. Abrir el archivo con el editor de texto
4. Al final del mismo hay dos parametros "Z-Axis" and "Z-Rotation", cambiarlos por "Off" todo esto sin comillas.
5. Cerrar el archivo.
6. Renormbrar como joypad quitandole "_example" y aceptar.
7.- Reiniar el juego y tendremos el menu y todo lo demas centrado.
Uffff
Un saludo
