Find instructions on how to adjust the MSI Force GC200 Gamepad using software.
Hi, I just purchased the MSI Force GC200 Gamepad (wired). Right away, I noticed it's too sensitive on both analog sticks. When I try to aim straight—up, right, down, or left—it drifts slightly, causing the input to be off by a diagonal angle. This makes it hard to hit targets accurately in-game. I've already tried several software options without success: DS4Windows, DXTweak2, JoystickGremlin.R14, UCR, x360ce, xpadder. Any suggestions on how to calibrate or reduce sensitivity would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
The only software currently accessible is the MSI center, since no firmware, drivers, or controller-specific programs are available. According to the information I found, it supports button mapping and calibration. If you haven't installed this yet, you might want to try it, as many companies offering such utilities—like MSI Center (formerly Dragon center), ASUS Armory Crate, Gigabyte control center, etc.—are seen as less reliable.
I believe it would be best to reach out to MSI directly since, based on what I observe, they seem to indicate the software is no longer supported in most cases. Was this a used item or did you purchase it new? From which source?
It is important because often individuals in countries other than the US receive outdated equipment, which is still new when purchased and sold as brand new, but may no longer be supported by the manufacturer. However, this isn't the situation here since your gamepad was launched in 2025. Still, it isn’t available in the US. But generally, if someone asks about hardware on a forum, it’s better not to dwell on why it matters and just provide the details. In most cases there’s a solid reason behind their question. For example, to understand what hardware is actually accessible in your country or region. To avoid recommending certain brands due to lack of local warranty support, forcing shipments overseas for assistance, and because many of us have experience over years helping people find suitable options based on quality and price within known brands. Also, because some users who help on these platforms often face frustration when asked questions but refuse to provide necessary details, and this is crucial for accurate advice. We don’t care about your location, your usage habits, or whether your system is old. Many of us have encountered similar situations or helped hundreds with nearly identical outdated setups. We only assist when we can and when people here are open to our help.

I haven’t used USB hubs in a long time. It seems that most people I share this information with don’t encounter similar problems, possibly because the device isn’t widely used or is still emerging.
Well, I just don't know man. Here's what I WILL tell you though. That board you're running is a white elephant. It has a specially hacked chipset or modified BIOS in order to be able to support 8th Gen Intel processors on the same board that can support 6th and 7th gen processors. Now, I can't say that this is for sure your problem, especially if you've used another physical controller before on the same USB 3.0 port, but since nothing else looks unusual and there doesn't seem to be any outstanding issues reported anywhere with these devices, my thought is going to be that it is somehow related to this board and I've seen a lot of other types of problems with boards that are modified to accept 8th gen processors that were originally only meant for 6th and 7th gen.
If you google this issue of modified motherboards using 8th gen CPUs on 6th/7th gen chipset boards, you'll find there is really quite a lot of them and none of the major players like ASUS, Gigabyte, ASRock and MSI ever released a board like this because of those problems. Digital alliance is a small, niche player in the motherboard industry that sometimes does things that should not be on motherboards sold to consumers.
