When I have TrackIR plugged into the second USB connect on front of PC, my joystick drops out when system rebooted. I ten need to unplug and replug the joystick so te PC will recognize it.
Will this happen if I plug the trackIR into a rear USB? Haven't tried it yet. Still trying to get used to flying with it.

Hi, sometimes the USB ports are run off the back ones. So say you have 8 ports 4 in the front and 4 in the back, the ones in the front are run off the back ones in a piggyback mode.

I would try and get your TIR with a low priority periferal (like the keyboard in game). I know it is hit and miss as to which port is linked to another so it could take a bit of time.
Good Luck
