Re: More problems with FSX

<t>Vincent - good news!<br/> <br/> After some extensive tinkering I believe my problem may have been a conflict with the APC Powerchute program. I did a reinstall and right now everything is working great! Need more time to confirm and fingers crossed!<br/> <br/> thanks again for your support - Trac...

Re: More problems with FSX

Do you recommend starting the TIR software before running FSX, or rather wait until a flight loads and then go to windowed mode, jump out of FSX, load TIR, and then jump back into FSX?

Or should it not make any difference?

Re: More problems with FSX

<t>Vincent,<br/> <br/> Another thought occurred to me after scouring the web - I am using NVIDIA GTX 8800 video card. There are some reports of difficulty with FSX, but others have had better luck with the latest driver. I still get the stutters - even rolled back driver with no luck. Are you aware ...

Re: More problems with FSX

when starts up, usually smooth for a few seconds up to a few minutes - when it works, its great - smooth tracking and good FPS, but then just gets laggy and eventually FSX will freeze up.

I tried unplugging wireless USB adapter, no joy.

Not sure what else to try

Track IR, FSX, and anti-virus protection

Does anyone know of an anti-virus program that is compatible with FSX, Track IR, and Vista 32?

Re: More problems with FSX

I don't mind using the Windows firewall, but it seems careless not to have an anti-virus program.

I can't believe I'm the only one with this problem.

Is there no way to run Track IR with FSX and still have anti-virus protection?

Re: More problems with FSX

<t>did a quick test in which I uninstalled McAfee firewall and seemed to run better. Didn't have time for thorough test. Problem is, it doesn't make sense to go without a firewall. Before the latest TIR driver came out, I went through about 10 firewall programs and nothing helped. Before I go down t...

Re: More problems with FSX

again what's maddening is that will work fine one moment and then get laggy or freeze at random times.

sometimes when I pause TIR (yellow light) FSX will stabilize and then when turn TIR back on -gets goofy again - any clues there?
