Hello,

It sounds like you might have an ATI graphics card. Please see the following thread and try out it's recommendation.

If that doesn't work then please post detailed information about your graphics card and drivers.


In the mean time, you can use the TrackIR 4.x drivers with your TrackIR 5 hardware. The 4.x software doesn't have as nice of a GUI as the 5.x software, but it does support all of the same games and simulations. So you should be good to use that as a workaround for the time being.

it isnt the settings

for som reason the ir 5 prog started a couple of times.
so now i realy dont understand what the problem is.

if starts somtimes and somtimes i just stops working
and i know my hardware is ok.

and another problem i have is that not many games support track ir

i have got a whole load of games and only flight sim and dirt 3 seem to work

even arma 2 aint working while i c in the setup freelook left,right,up,down it shows track ir :S only thing is that the text is grey ???

racedriver grid is not working i dont even c it in controls list

and take on helicopters is not working

ps what i did find out is that track ir 5 prog works mostly when i havent updated the gameprofiles

Hi Ericv,

Could you please confirm the driver version you are using? Is this the 13.1 Nvidia driver or the 13.3?
