FLIGHT: EVERYTHING SAITEK

I suffered a stroke a few years back and now i am 45 disabled but love PC games.

Perhaps if someone has a setup close to mine they could help me setting this up for me.

I live in the USA so if you are from there perhaps we can use he phone.

I have just about all games since the year 2000 on up..

Well i hope someone responds to this because i want to bad to use my TIR 5.


thanks,

First things first, what sim(s) are you planning on running? You mention everything Saitek, does that include the BIP? Also, do you use EZDOK?

You will need to ensure that any anti-virus or firewall software has exceptions for TrackIR5.exe and FSX.exe, otherwise they may not be able to communicate with eachother.

There should be no direct conflict between the TrackIR or any of the listed equipment, it should just work otherwise. If you experience issues out of the gate, start by unplugging the flight equipment and loading FSX with just the TrackIR. If this does not work, check firewall/av.

my firewall and trendmicro is deactivated.
tir 5 software works by it self.
i just have no idea how to set it up.
or how to use it in arma or fsx..

perhaps someone with experience can send me a prvt msg and I will give them my phone number.
maybe just maybe i can enjoy this neat little gadget.

(I also have some kind of headset clip (some thing called a pro clip )

Have you got it sorted out? Clip goes on the visor, or bill of a ball cap ( It won't fit on my headset). I have my receiver on top of my monitor. I wonder what kind of CPU temps you are getting 5.2Ghz. I get out of range at 4.8Ghz. I7-2700K.
