Joystick de-calibration

I'm having an issue where my joystick all the sudden seems to re-calibrate itself in flight. It will think Zero is in a left turn or something, and it is becoming quite a nuisance. I think it is the computer doing it, as it has the same problem in FSX, WOV, and a couple of racing games. I tried it and it happens with both my joysticks, a Microsoft sidewinder, and a logitech extreme 3d pro, and multiple usb ports. Can anyone help me with this?
 
Try using just one joystick at a time to see if that changes anything. Also, make sure you dont have an axis mapped to another input device that you may be overlooking (eg. by default my rudder pedals were aileron and elevator axis and as such would cause unwanted results until properly set up). If all else fails, you can try deleting the drivers for the joystick and reinstalling them.
 
With the Logitec stick have you opened the profiler and tested it?

Sounds like software issues.As stated remove all drivers and just try using one .
