Uncontrollable scrolling from PC game controller?

I recently bought a Steelseries 1gc pc game controller to play with NHL 09 for my computer. I have only one problem, and its really annoying. I go into the game with the controller, and on ANY menu thats ingame, the thing that highlights the selection on the menu goes HAYWIRE! I have to hit the button at precisely the right time! it starts of slow, then speeds up. The controller itself still works, I can use it to play, but with this problem it just isnt worth it. Please help!
 
Pretty sure I've encountered this before, so here are a few hints.

1. Make sure controller is calibrated. On Windows: Control Panel > Game Controllers.

2. Even when it is calibrated, if it's got an analogue stick it's possible to slightly move it, and it will acknowledge a direction-change.

3. Could be glitch with that particular game. I've had this happen.
