F9 not working from within FSX

Post by sharonbh »

Hi all,

I have a disturbing problem when playing FSX.

When i'm trying to "freeze" the TIR using F9 key while playing FSX, nothing happen. I know that F9 is a short cut key in FSX to change back to virtual cockpit, so i deleted this function from the button setting inside FSX setting but still cannot freeze the TIR.
The reason i would like to freeze the TIR is that it is uncomfortable when using SPOT view. I rather freeze it and go with the stick HAT.

Any solution?

Thanks

Have you tried running both the TrackIR software, and the gaming application as an admin (right click on the exe file for each, and select run as admin)?
