So I've been using this wheel for quite som time now and has worked flawlessly.
But a week ago suddenly Logitech Gaming Software wouldn't pop up when I clicked it. So I did my standard procedure and re-installed drivers and software, tried older ones etc. Still wouldn't pop up. Well I could still change wheel settings via the Control Panel so I didn't mind not being able to access Logitech Profiler.

Now more problems started popping up, all after I drove for 2hrs in rFactor pretty intense (still learning so there was many violent wheel turns to save the car from crashing sometime) and everything was ok after that. Then I jumped in Richard Burns Rally and the steering didn't work, so I went into the settings to remap everything. Pedals, shifter was mapable, but the steering axis wouldn't get recognized.

So I did the standard procedure again, changing USB ports, reinstalling and updating and downgrading firmware. Still nothing. So now I'm stuck with that.
rFactor still worked. But now I got this weird problem where there is this massive deadzone except in a spot which is like 5 degrees. Here is a video showing it:

Help is much much appreciated.

What happens when the wheel does its calibration? Does it properly go from one direction to the next and then back to center?

When you press the buttons while in the g27 setup, do the FFB effect tests work right?

I think in the video you said it worked fine for half a year? So I'm assuming its still under warranty?

Yes, it calibrates correctly, and it simulates FFB when I'm pressing the buttons in the software.

Yeah, probably got warranty but I'm almost sure it's all software related. Either drivers or some **** in the registry.
 
Have you tried making a new account in Windows and trying it on there, or if you have a PS3 and GT5 or something, testing it there just to rule out for sure a hardware issue?

Don't have any consoles. But I will for sure try to use it on another Win account. I'll post the results later
