I'm unable to get the steering of my 13-years-old "Logic3 TopDrive GT3 Tri-Format" work smoothly. Every time I try to rotate the wheel in a single direction I'm getting an annoying left-right-left-right swerve. The software driver came in a floppy that is now damaged, but I found it was a generic driver called "LS-USBMX 1/2/3 Steering Wheel W/Vibration". Once installed, it only created a folder inside %windir% called "USB Vibration" and it placed some files inside, which all redirect to Windows "Devices and printers". The software seems useless, because it hasn't fixed my problem. Below there is the video demostration I made, if you have any suggestion apart buying another wheel please let me know.

Solution
At 13 years old I would suspect physical wear on the mechanical parts, or the sensor going out or needing calibration. Dust can reek havoc on them too. Look for a guide on how to clean and calibrate the model you have.
