What is the full model name of that stick of yours?

 

Also, do you know what kind of USB port you are using for your stick? (2.0 is preferable, if it's an old computer chassis and you have it plugged into the chassis instead of the motherboard, it might be an older standard of port and that might be a problem.)

 

Finally, have you looked at whether your motherboard drivers are old and if so, check if there's newer ones. (Or for that matter, if you very very recently switched to new ones, see if the problem is replicatable with older drivers.)

Are you using the lastest Saitek drivers?

I wish I could help, but I still use WinXP, and you use Vista 64x, but I found a long time ago, that a bad profile can create all kinds of problems. Always keep a backup of a known good Saitek profile to see if the problems occur with that one. Wish I had more to offer...
