Just really depressed now. Re-wired all so that they all  have direct power plug in to my Alienware 51X. Have spent a bundle. FIPs worked for a short time now they do not... Went to Saitek re-downloaded drivers, no avail. My BIP, radio stacks 2ea, auto pilot panel with trim wheel, switch pnale with gear lever all work. Just the FIP's  almost a $1000.00 worth, help. Originally all worked as I added them to my system, and then all of a sudden, whosh, they were gone. They red lights still flash to each and every one, they do have power. Simvation die hard payer for three years. Just never bloged before...first time ever. Grin

did you attempt to remove the drivers manually? I had trouble with mine until I manually removed the driver and reinstalled (running 9 FIPS at the moment with all saitek products with the exception of the BIP).

If you need to open a case with Saitek for support GOOD LUCK, I had a multipanel that was dead on arrival. Fortunately the vendor I purchased it from allowed me to exchange it for a working unit after 7 days of waiting with no response from the support team.

I ended up getting a response after 10 days, but by then I had the replacement panel sitting on my desk and working much better.
