            Specifies the minimum x position value of the joystick.
 
        WORD wXmax
            Specifies the maximum x position value of the joystick.
 
        WORD wYmin
            Specifies the minimum y position value of the joystick.
 
        WORD wYmax
            Specifies the maximum y position value of the joystick.
 
        WORD wZmin
            Specifies the minimum z position value of the joystick.
 
        WORD wZmax
            Specifies the maximum z position value of the joystick.
 
        WORD wNumButtons
            Specifies the number of buttons on the joystick.
 
        WORD wPeriodMin
            Specifies the smallest polling interval supported when
            captured by joySetCapture.
 
        WORD wPeriodMax
            Specifies the largest polling interval supported when
