Hi guys,
I just received the Track IR 3 Pro this week.
Like the other XP user, I have tried just about everything and cannot get Win 2000 to find the USB Driver for Track IR.
I do have X-Keys, but I completely disabled and uninstalled it before installing the Track IR software.
I followed the installation to the letter. I have also gone into the Windows Device Manager and tried to updated the USB Device Driver manually (tried using C:\WINNT\INF\NP3USB.INF).
Even though I think I have the latest installer, I also downloaded the May 3 version from the TrackIR site and tried that. I also tried everything that was said to the XP User with the same problem.
No matter what I do Windows 2000 always comes back to "Unable To Locate Driver For Device".
One other question, should there be a light or something on the Track IR device when plugging it in ? Others seemed to mention this, but I see nothing.
I know my USB ports are in working order.
Any help would be appreciated.
Another USB Driver Problem - Win 2000

Follow up.....
I installed the product at my office under Windows XP. Everything worked fine as expected.
I then tried another machine at my office running Windows 2000. This installation also went just fine.
Therefore, there must be some kind of incompatibility with my home machine.
Unfortunately, I cannot use the product at work

akriesman,
What USB devices are you using on your home computer that are not installed on your works system.
If you are running X keys you may have to install the X keys software again and then un-install, but also check the registry for any remaining keys.
Please keep me updated with this.

Hi Wayne,
I have fixed the problem, but it was not easy.
It seems that the X-Keys installation causes a whole lot of trouble for TrackIR.
The basic uninstall of X-keys from the system was not enough. I had to go into the registry and remove every reference to the USB drivers for X-keys.
After rebooting, Windows 2000 sees TrackIR just fine.
I have not yet reinstalled X-keys. Hopefully it will work just fine. X-Keys is a nice addition to FS2004.
