Hi,

I have the same problem. Tried following steps from another post :

1. Uninstall all TrackIR software.
2. Delete the TrackIR4 folder from C:\Program Files\NaturalPoint
3. Disconnect the TrackIR and reboot PC
4. Reinstall the software from this link.
5. Reboot PC.
6. Connect the TrackIR to a USB port on the back of the PC.
7. No matter what displays, if it installs, great but if not, find a file called SETUPAPI.LOG in your windows folder and email it to me.

I have also tried using different usb ports-no effect.

Here's my install log :

3-5-2006

I tried the regfix : No devices detected that need fixing

I have also tried it on another pc and it doesn't work there either -> unknown USB device.

Please help.
