Saitek Cyborg Evo and IWar 1

I recently got IWar 2, and I figured I should play the original before I get to the sequel. I managed to get the game to run fine with a Glide wrapper and adjusted page file size, but once I get in game, my ship spirals out of control really, really fast. There doesn’t seem to be anything I can do about it. My joystick is properly calibrated, and I’ve tried recalibrating many times. Every time, I get the same problem. The problem isn’t the joystick, as I’ve never run into this in anything else using it. Is there any workaround?
