Ok, goto control panel > Game Controllers > In there you should be able to set it up, calibrate it etc.

Try calibrating it.

do you have up to date drivers?
what operating system?
did you do anything since this morning? (updates, etc)
have you tried unplugging it restarting and plugging back in?

Aha, ok, goto control panel > game devices and goto Properties for it, does the + sign move in the box when you move the joystick etc.?

Ok, try removing the addon and see what happens.
