Well I'll try it on another system, expect the results in a few days.. Thx so far.

[VincentG]

OK....

I had the same prob.
When I turn my head my Microphone sometimes blocks out 1 light.
Solution was to move the mic boom up or down a bit.
Could this be your problem?

[Frobs]

Thought of that instantly. But also with my old hat with trackclip I did get the problem. I'm really sure there is nothing blocking the device. Thx anyway for your suggestion!

[Frobs]

Tried it on an other pc, and did not suffer the problem. Well, I'm getting another motherboard in a few days, so I'm planning a fresh windows install. I think that will help!

[VincentG]

OK, let me know how it goes......

[Frobs]

Ok I will not get a new motherboard, the guy just decided to keep it himself.. So I just started fiddling again to get trackir working correctly. I'm will not completely re�nstall windows only to get my trackir working, however I tried some system restore points in windows (from moments I know for sure the device worked correctly at that time). Re�nstalled trackir sofware (also tried an older version), connected the device in other usb ports, disconnected al my other usb devices (except my keyboard/mouse, moved the position of trackir back and forward, cleaned up my registry also, cleaned the trackir, it all didn't help. I did some overclocking of my cpu, and adjusted some memory timings, switching back to normal settings didn't help also.

When I think of it, the problems started after I've installed the game, Armed Assault. However I've played the game for perhaps 3-4 days without problems with my trackir. However, the game crashed a couple of times (it's not completely bug free.. ) which needed a hard reboot. Maybe that caused some problems?

[VincentG]

OK, do you have the latest chipset drivers, and motherboard bios installed?

[Frobs]

Yep latest chipset drivers and bios.

Edit:

I've made a sprintscreen of a 'hickup':

I'm using the normal tracklip (with hat here). As you see, the tracking is right (3 green dots). However, at 'status' you see 'no data'. That happens just for 1-2 seconds.

Are you running FRAPS?
