Make Xbox 360 controller 4-directional?

I am playing Helldivers on the PC using a wireless Xbox 360 controller. My problem is that the d-pad sometimes registers diagonal presses instead of straight. This causes me to struggle with the sequences of 4-directional inputs that the game requires. It only needs up/down/left right, but when it registers a diagonal press, the whole sequence aborts.
Is it possible to use software to limit the d-pad to 4 directions only?

Has no software to do that, however you might want to calibrate your controller.
Calibration process:
- Go to Start > Control Panel
- Select Devices and Printers
- Right-click the controller and click Game controller settings
- Go to Properties > Settings tab > Calibrate
- Go to Device Calibration Wizard to configure the axes of controller and click next
- The wizard will guide you through the calibration process
- Save configuration and click Finish.
- Now test the operation of the controller from the test tab
- Click ok twice if the test was successful else click Settings > Reset to default and try again
