Are you on PC? And what do you mean by "going down all the time"? Do you mean it just starts moving down and you have no control. As I recall, the up/down controls are reversed like a joystick, so 'w' is pitch down and 's' is pitch up.

the ship goes down by default. Sometimes uncontrollably sometimes I can pitch up without problem, I don't have any mods on and I tried reinstalling it several times loading it as admin and put the 1.1 patch. Is it just me or is anyone else have this problem.
I have widows 7 if it has anything to do with it.

Hmm, thats interesting.  It actually sounds like a bug I"ve seen in a2 with physics.

If I were you, I would try and install a mod like Aftermath that will let you play the original campaign.  Then maybe it will work?

Do you have a joystick or gamepad plugged in upside down on the floor?

I've done that.

I've done that.

Also, if you have a joypad/sitck plugged in and haven't calibrated it through Windows it can sometimes think the controls are non-0 even if they are at there rest potition. Just calibrate the joypad to eliminate this. If you're using the keyboard, it sounds like a key is stuck, or at least signaling.

Yes, it can also happen if the joystick is off-center when it is plugged in/computer is turned on.

Nope they have to be in seperate installs.

but thats ok because you can have multiple versions of legacy on your computer at once.

Is it the fact that I didn't install it on C?

Nope.    You can install the game wherever you want however many times you want.
