It also seems like the screen stretch setting affects the guide star detection in Maxim, unlike PHD, i could be wrong on this but that's what i observed.
I get around this problem with manual calibration plugin. Or point at a real bright star and adjust the screen stretch so do don't see any noisy pixels in the background.
But if you don't see your guidestar move at all during calibration then it'll be a different problem to mine.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no and sometimes a qualified yes ie it moves, but not enough in x.
I have been manually selecting the guidestar - if there is a v bright star I avoid it.
