Saitec controls during flight

[Sundevil 0]

Running FSX Gold deluxe @ acceleration on Windows 7. I have a Saitek pro flight yoke, rudder and throttle quad. Has been working fairly well until I started having problems with the rudder over reacting causing flight between stalls and dives. Saitek tried setting the controls but hasn't solved the problem. They suggest I reinstall FSX, which is a pain and I'll lose all my logbook, flight records etc. Before I do this does anyone have another option? I've tried flying the Cessna 172 and the Mooney with same results. If I do have to reinstall FSX should it go into it's own folder as some have suggested or let it install in default?

You dont need to reinstall FSX.BYW, Logbook and awards can be saved and restores.Use SPAD for Saitek and assign all controls in FSUIPC. Cheers, - jahman.
