TrackIR 5 + Saitek Cyborg X = BSOD

Post by Dr_Mitsos »

I just bought my TrackIR 5 & my new joystick Saitek Cyborg X, plugged them in, installed them, and after some time when i play games - simulators (IL-2 1946, Lock on FC 1.12b, DCS: BS) with both activated after some time blue screen of death appears and my pc reboots... Any ideas ? I suppose there must be some conflict between them. I tried to change my USB, unistall and then reinstaill my drivers but the problem exists... I even formated my pc... (tried both versions for TrackIR 5, 5.04 beta & 4 final). Below are my pc specs:

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz (4 CPUs) Memory: 2046MB RAM
Hard Drive: 1 TB Total
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT
Monitor: LG 22''
Sound Card: Realtek HD Audio
Operating System: Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 3
Motherboard: GIAGABYTE P35T-DS3P

Here it is my DxDiag (everything seems fine)

PLEASE I DESPERATELY NEED HELP !!!

is your TrackIR connected through a hub? TrackIR doesn't like it and connecting it directly to the PC solved some problems for me in the beginning (others remain..)

just an idea...

and I forgot: do you run beta5? if yes, put it into the trash can...just a piece of ....(fill in whatever you like). It doesn't run at all on my machine as compared to beta4(which has its bugs but does run).... What shall we think about a company which brings out 5 beta versions and the last one doesn't run at all? ( by the way did you notice that they mention June 24 as the publishing date on their information sheet and July 24 on the download page? I hope they don't write their codes the same way...)

With TrackIR4 we had such a nice tool working perfectly and now we have this amateurish stuff....

Found my problem (i think... not sure yet - 2 hours of continuous play & no BSOD). There is a conflict between TrackIR 5 & SST (SAITEK profiler) as other people reported it to me... So i uninstalled it and everything works fine!

NATURALPOINT PLEASE look for my feedback & try to fix it or else contact SAITEK. There IS a conflict!
