Software cannot be connected with the device

Post by Seasick »

First thing, excuses for my bad English.

I have installed the new drivers (Version 3.10) for my Track Ir 1 following the instructions of the manual. Initially the installation goes well, until it asks me if I want to erase the rest of previous installations. I accept and it gives an error message: some files cannot be found. I look for them manually and they are not in my system. Finalized the installation I reboot and when I attempt to use my unit it shows a message that that says �software cannot be connected with the unit� . I have verified that in Device Manager/ USB controllers / Naturalpoint Track Ir, is noticeable an error: �Truncated or incomplete registry variables�.

I would thank for a little aid, because I cannot live (or fly at least) without my unit.

You are rigt

I�ve verified everything and what the installation tried to delete were registry keys, not files (I�m such an idiot ). I have found them and erased, reinstalled, and everything goes well now.

Thank you very much, anyway.

Same problem as Dimi3 - install routine cannot delete it and it doesn't work manually either...

Ran a registry checker (registry mechanic) found some errors and corrected them - still no go...

---

Now I cannot run any version of TrackIR... great! Please post hints & tips in the forum - as Soron said - it's great that you solved Dimis problem Wayne but other users might also profit from your knowledge!

Hello all!

I have administrative rights, but I can�t delete the Keys!

I have already solved the problem:

I have uninstalled Naturalpoint Loader under Systemsteuerung/System/Ger�temanager/USB (not the software!). Then reboot. Afterwards TrackIR connecting and look for best treiber. He also appears who calls he better ones. On click and finish. Then I have back again my TrackIR.

The only what I do not have: software (3.10) does not start with Windows!

Greets!
