Controls stuck going left [Solved]

[Mr_Cheese]

I intitally had this problem with Type:Rider and posted in the game forum/contacted the developers but with no luck and then I tried the Sign Motion demo and had the same problem:

When I load either game the player character is stuck going left, this persists (along with an upward movement) in the game menus so that nothing can be selected. In both cases other input works (e.g. right, jump etc) but always as a fight against the leftward movement. I have a Logitech G15 keyboard, Logitech M310 wireless mouse with the USB wireless receiver plugged into one of the keyboard's USB ports. I also have a Logitech Formula Force racing wheel and Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick, both of which I have tried unplugging but with no change.

As the problem happens with two games, and a quick Google search suggests others (e.g. http://steamcommunity.com/app/319280/discussions/0/616187203895626456/), with the common factor being Steam I wondered if it might be something to do with that? Has anyone else come across this and/or does anyone have an answer please?!

Thanks :)

*Solution: I had vJoy virtual joystick driver installed as part of FaceTrackNoIR - uninstalling fixed the problem.

Have you unplugged them before you started the game?

Thanks for the suggestion, but yes. I just double-checked with Type:Rider and it's still stuck left/up.

Check your Hardware manager and try to disable any USB device driver you don't need currently. If it stops doing that, enable them one by one until you found the culprit.

Thanks for the tip! I checked my Device Manager and there were loads of Logitech Virtual HID Devices and something called vJoy virtual joystick driver. I checked and this was installed as part of FaceTrackNoIR, which I'd tried out a few months ago. Clicked uninstall and the problem seems to be fixed! Thanks again for your help.
