Re: No lights. Software crashes on startup

Just wanted to update to say TrackIR 5 is now working. I had a separate issue with not being able to copy large numbers of files from my USB drive and it turns out to be an nVidia USB driver issue related to the ability to map more than 3gb of RAM on 64bit machines. Microsoft released a hotfix which...

Re: No lights. Software crashes on startup

<r>I have the latest drivers for all my devices including motherboard (P5N-D) and video card (8800GTX).<br/> <br/> Installing TrackIR4 I get full functionality.<br/> <br/> Strangely re-installing TrackIR5 I can now (intermittently) get the UI to show briefly before crashing indicating it might be a ...

Re: No lights. Software crashes on startup

I have managed to get the darn thing working by installing the older software version 4.

There is certainly something wrong with version 5 of the software under Win7 64bit, strange because it worked fine before I upgraged to Win7.

Lights do not come on, software crashes on start up.<br/> <br/> I have tried all the normal driver workarounds, deleting all drivers connecting in different order, uninstall, usb power options etc. <br/> <br/> The device is recognised by the system and the drivers appear to ...

Re: TrackIR 5 range

<t>Ok, no problem, thanks for the answer.. thats interesting so behind is an option.. might be difficult with my setup. <br/> <br/> What about 6 ft but off centre to the left (2ft left of the centre), I understand this probably lowers accuracy but does the software have the ability to configure that...

Re: TrackIR 5 range

<t>Ill take the lack of response as a "Sorry no".<br/> <br/> Thats a shame, so the 2-5ft range seems to be a stumbling block for ppl with projectors, damn! <br/> <br/> I guess I will have to look at alternatives like FreeTrack, I think because that works with any webcam I might be able to get a high...

I estimate that the total distance a wire would hav...
