I have a TrackIR4 with the Pro Clip. I just got a new computer and installed the software for TrackIR5. Before launching FSX, I start IR5 and confirm that it's trackng my hed movements and I center the display.
Then I launch FSX. Both icons are visible in the taskbar. Once I choose a flight and FSX goes to full screen the IR5 works perfectly. When I close FSX, the TrackIR5 icon has disappeared from the taskbar and I have to go to task manager to shut it down.
Running Win7 64 bit Professional.
Any thoughts?

Conflict with FSX?
Re: Conflict with FSX?
Are you minimizing the TrackIR software before loading FSX?

Yes.

OK, uninstalled software (in case it was a Win7 permissions thing) and reinstalled in it's own folder instead of the default c:\program files.
Upon further experimenting I discovered it was disappearing to the system tray from the taskbar, but I didn't realize it because the preference was set to the default "show only notifications". I reset that to "show icon and notifications" and now it stays visible in the system tray. Then I double click that to get it back on the taskbar, where I can bring it back up to make adjustments or close it.
