Hi Daniel,

Sounds like you have some keyboard software or another
process which is causing a problem with that game only...

Let's try some basic troubleshooting. If the problem still persists
please post back and we'll try some more steps. Good luck!

1. To see if it's a software conflict: Temporarily disable Startup
programs one at a time, starting with Firewall, Antivirus, and ad
blockers using: http://new.jtsoft2001.com/windows/startup.php

You can lookup what a program does before you disable it here:
http://www.sysinfo.org/startuplist.php

2. Run a virus scan at: http://housecall.antivirus.com Afterwards
Download & Run Spybot from: http://security.kolla.de to find any
Trojans, Adware, or Spyware which could clog up your system.

3. Click My Computer / Rightclick the Drive & Choose Properties
/ Run the "Disk Cleanup..." / Next Click the "Tools" Tab and run
the "Error-Checking" and "Defragmentation" utilities.

4. Go to the Windows Update site for everything under Critical and
Recommended: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com Some games
require a patch: http://www.avault.com/pcrl/patches_list.asp?letter=a

5. Update DirectX and your Chipset, Sound, &Video Drivers:

one more thing is when you experience this, try calibrating your controller
in control panel and also make sure your analog sticks are not being moved
while the game loads. I have the same controller and have had this issue
with a few games. at times a reboot or disconnecting and reconnecting my
controller was the only way to resolve this. HTH
