Microsoft 3dPro Deadspace

Hello, seems to me I remember there was a command line for reducing the deadspace of the 3dPro? Anyone remember what it was? Thanks.

Re: USB Converter for MS Sidewinder 3DPro, PP, and FFP

Obtained one of the converters from Rage76. Thanks Rage76!! Works great!! I'm back playing Descent after an 18 year hiatus. Woohoo. Question. I seem to remember there was a command line switch that decreases the dead zone for pitch. Anybody remember what that was?

Rockfire RM-203 USB-Game Port Adapter

Anyone have any experience using this game port adapter with the Microsoft Sidewinder 3D Pro? One customer who bought it said all the buttons on the handle and the hat worked but not the base buttons. I can do without those. Running Windows 8.1 Pro.
