Here's the status. I had an asus mobo with via chipset and an agp card and trackir worked in FSX with alpha3 and beta4 drivers.
I decided to change videocard and bought a mobo with nforce4 sli chipset. Apart from getting the usual speed warning usb balloon tip (which is not actually a problem) trackir no longer works in FSX. The system has a fresh windows install with no drivers leftovers whatsoever. TrackIR works perfectly in Falcon4 Allied force and GPL but in FSX nothing happens. When i alt-tab from the game i see in the main tab of the trackir program that the no game is detected in the current game line.
Any ideas what could be wrong?
TrackIR4 not working in FSX anymore
Re: TrackIR4 not working in FSX anymore
First lets try a clean install of the TrackIR software.
Remove the TrackIR software by doing the following:
a. Click "Start"
b. Click on the "Control Panel"
c. Click "Add/Remove Programs"
d. Find "TrackIR" and click "Change/Remove"
e. Once launched it will give the option to completely remove it.
f. Delete the NaturalPoint folder at the following location, C:\Program Files\NaturalPoint
g. Download and reinstall the software from the following location, http://media.naturalpoint.com/software/ ... .Final.exe
Second, if that doesn't help, try reinstalling the Simconnect folder
1 � Delete the following file folder
C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\x86_Microsoft.FlightSimulator.SimConnect_67c7c14424d61b5b_10.0.60905.0_x-ww_429211e9
2 � Insert the FSX CD, and run the repair utility. Basically we are looking to reinstall the folder.
3 � Hopefully this should remedy the issue.
Please let me know if this helps.

Re: TrackIR4 not working in FSX anymore
Thanks for the immediate reply.The problem was with the directory.It was empty. After deleting it and doing a repair at the game's instalation, it worked like a charm.
