TrackIR 5 Framerate Drop for Lockon FC 2

Post by fulcrumbg »

Hi, I have the following issue:
When I start FC2 together with TrackIR 5 , Frame-rate drops dramatically, I have latest video drivers, latest patch for Lockon, and latest TrackIR software, I have DCS A-10 and no problems with it, but with FC2 this weird thing occur. When I pause it frame-rate is back to normal, the moment I unpause the trackir , same thing again ! Other titles that I'm using with TrackIR: FSX, FS2004 and FreeFalcon - no problems at all, this thing happens only with FC 2
Does anyone experienced the same ?

Is the TrackIR application minimized when lock on is running?

Yes, I'm using "minimize to tray" option, just to mention that the problem occurs even after fresh reinstall of Lockon 2 & Trackir 5

Are you launching the applications by right clicking and selecting "Run as administrator"?

Are you using any other peripheral devices such as a display or joystick setup?

No, it is just my saitek x52, every game/sim I run in "as administrator" mode , anyway this weekend I'm going to backup all my data and reinstall windows , just to see if it's any other software conflict and I will keep you updated
