TrackIR won't load if WindowBlinds is running

Post by RMagruder »

I am using the latest version of WindowBlinds (http://www.stardock.com), I think it's version 4.5, and TrackIR will not function with it loaded, nor will it run the TrackIR application. As soon as it's unloaded, I can run TrackIR.

Can you please investigate why this is so?

Thanks,

Randy

RMagruder,

Please go to our support page... http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/sup ... oting.html

This will then explain how to set your Window Blinds so that the NaturalPoint window is not reskinned.

If you are still having a problem please give me a shout.

Okay, I didn't see that - I'll do what you suggested. Thanks.

At the risk of morphing the thread. The other app that Track-IR doesn't get along with is EA's "3dbench" utility.

If I run it while Track-IR is active, the 3dsetup runs sloooooooooww (I'm talking one dot on the screen every ten seconds, instead of all three texture modes in less than ten seconds). Trying to abort it causes lots of problems. I've seen Track-IR begin to eat up a phenomenal amount of memory while this was happening....

I just have to be real careful that I've killled the Track-IR app before I run 3d Bench.

Cheers,
Randy
