TrackIR drops out with FS9

Hello:

I seem to have a problem when using my TrackIR with FS9. The yellow status light will go out and TrackIR operates intermittently. Plus all movements are very jerky. I have no problem with FSX and nothing is different with my setup between FS9 and FSX. I tried using the same setting with both and had trouble so I tried using the "default flight" setting with FS9 but it didn't make any difference. It works perfectly with FSX(very smooth and never drops out) so I can't understand why it is jerky and drops out with FS9. FS9 works smoother then FSX on my computer so I would think that TrackIR would too when using it with FS9, but it doesn't. It is unuseable with FS9.
Please help.

What version of Windows are you running?

What version of the TrackIR software?

Any add-ons installed for FS9?

Vincent:

I am running with Windows XP Home.
I have Ver. 4.1 build 3.0 of TrackIR.
After reading your response I remembered that I have Active Camera 2004 installed. I checked it and unclicked "internal pilot view" and my problem went away. Now I just have to see which profile I like best.
I'm a happy camper again.

Thanks
