Can't Map Keys

[Jed777Fly 0]

Hello! Let me begin by saying I am fairly new to flight sims. Have had experience in the past but it has been a while.

 

Anyway, my problem is I can't map keys to my joystick and throttle. I use the Saitek X52 and have read not to use their software so I uninstalled it and that did not change anything. What happens is, when I go to controls to assign a new button and choose a button to assign, for example elevator trim up, and I press the key I would like to assign it to, nothing happens. Nothing in the box appears like 'Button 4' or something. It just stays blank and doesn't work. Also the first time I loaded up P3D with the X52 plugged in, I am fairly sure it said in the controller box that I was using the Saitek X52. However now when I load up with the X52 plugged in it says 'mouse yoke'. Is this part of the problem? Maybe it isn't I problem and I am just missing something. Either way help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
