Hi,

I have used the TrackIR system for about a month by now and it has worked fine with the racing game GTR till yesterday.
Yesterday it suddenly started to stutter and a few minutes ago it failed to work.
I did several new installs of GTR and i also tried different software (e.g. trackir 3.14 and 4.0) but nothing helped.
Even a fresh Win XP install didn�t fix the problem.
TrackIR seems to work without any problems on desktop, all the lights are on even when I start GTR, but there is no movement in the game...
I hope you can help me with my problem.

Azz, do you have a wheel in use?
Does it go into the same main port as the TIR wether through a USB Hub powered or not?
If the answer is yes to either of the above then try them on seperate ports (the ones on your PC not Hub).

The two devices going through one main USB port can send more data than the port can handle when both are in use at the same time as they are both high data devices. This would explain why the TIR is running OK on the desktop. I had this happen after running a Cougar and TIR on the same port after a while and was pulling my hair out over it but seperating them fixed the problem.

Good Luck

Hi,
thx for reply.
Yes, I have a wheel in use, but this seems not to be the problem, because when I attach the TIR alone I still have the same problem.
I tried the TIR at my other computer and it worked fine with GTR.
I think the problem must be a software issue.
