Sorry about that. Forgot to. Here is a picture of my setup:

You can check your joystick on the PC by going to Control Panel -> Game Controllers to see what it thinks the joystick is doing.
It could be due to mis-calibrated speed controllers (less likely). You can test this by temporarily changing your code to use "0" constants to feed your Holonomic Drive function. (This will also tell you if it's your joystick input.)
If your wheels are still turning with constant zero's in place, then it's probably a wiring issue.

This will be the next thing I will try to check. It's possible, but I tried adjusting the joysticks. Just as a question, what should I change if that is the problem?

Sorry I wasn't excatly clear. I meant to say that I had changed it from that pic, and hooked it up like 3p1c w1n has. I put the second joystick's x axis to control the rotation.
