I'm getting a lot of crashing to desktop and BSODS whil using TrackIR Pro.

XP with FSX SP2 acceleration. any ideas or advice would be appreciated.

Thnx

I have never had a problem with my TrackIR FSX SP2 Acceleration. Is this an out of the box problem or just started. Either way, do you have the latest drivers from Natural Point and also your graphics card?

How well would Track IR work with my system (below)? Just for grins, I looked into the Track IR and I think it's something I might want to add to my computer-- it if works. Anybody here using it with FS9? How well does it work for you?

My system: AMD Phenom 9500 cpu, 2 x eVGA e-GeForce 8800GTS Superclocked vidcards (640Mb DDR3 each), Zalman "sunflower" 9700 fan, Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 mobo, 4Gb G.Skill PC2-6400 DDR2 800Mhz RAM, 2 x Sony 20X DVD writers, Thermaltake Toughpower 850W modular p/s, 7 x 120mm fans, Windows XP Home and SP3, 2 x 250Gb Western Digital SATA-300 HDs (1 for apps, 1 for storage and precious files backup), CoolerMaster CM 690 case, NOD-32. Won't run FSX. Locks up a lot with FS9, too.

Hi All,

No - it appears my PC is playing up at the moment so I'm probably being unfair to TrackIR.

One thing I don't like is that everything on the VC panel is much more shimmery and flickery while the trackIR is on.
