Managed to open the trackir5 software after downgraded my catalyst driver (had 11.5b - the witcher 2 fix)

but somehow the trackir5 is not getting any feedback from my trackclip i only have 2 red leds on and not the IR on.

Maybe our problems are a little different, I can get the software to run, it�s just keeping it running is my problem, and getting it started again without a full reboot� :-(

MikeJ, if you try the TrackIR 4 software, the profile will default to TrackClip (vector). You have to edit the profile and select TrackClip Pro for proper tracking.

Also, it may help to check and make sure your serial isn't in the range of 152000-152914.

It would also help to find out exactly what version of video driver you are on.

Hey Mike,

Thanks for the reply, I should probably down load the manual for 4 if I load it again. If you knew how long it took me to get the 5 going, and there are still options I'm not real sure about.

My serial number on the cord is 152742

My NVIDA driver number is 275.33 for the GTX 460

Thanks for your time,

Mike J

There's the problem, mikej. You have a unit that was subject to a manufacturing defect, as described here. Please email support@naturalpoint.com to start the RMA process.

Thanks for the reply Mike,

So you believe it�s still not working right? I had previously sent it back a few months ago for the red distortions in Pics 4 and 5 of the link. Looking at the unit now is more like Pic 7. Do you think the unit was not fixed correctly? I will send an email and start the RMA process again if that is your suggestion.

Thanks again for your time and help on this.

Sorry AirZone, the comment above in 47923 was actually directed at you:

AirZone, if you try the TrackIR 4 software, the profile will default to TrackClip (vector). You have to edit the profile and select TrackClip Pro for proper tracking.
