Title: Tir freezes computer
Post by: Stone on January 22, 2005, 12:17:41 PM

Hi,
Any one else got the problem that track ir freezes the pc.

Cant get ctr-alt-del even :(

Have to press the reset button :(

I can play a few games, and then game freezes.

This problem started the day I installed TIR.

Am I the only one who gets this problem?

Your dxdiag does not show a USB driver for the TrackIR. Was this before or after you installed/uninstalled the driver? Have you been to the forums here and asked about this.

The log is after installing and using TIR.
I have asked this same question at naturalpoint.

Strange the USB driver does not show.

I been told to uninstall the driver, delete all folders about TIR and re-install.

I will do this and hope it helps :)

I did change USB ports, and got a second P&P install, so I hope deleteing and uninstall / install corrects the hangups.

'just a thought.....

The software on the CD is an older version; and if you download the and install the newer version from their website you end up with both programs running at the same time; which can give problems.

So remember to properly uninstall the old software first.

Well, it did NOT help :(

I de-installed, deleted folder and installed. Even re-installed AH2.

I can play one or two games, and then the computer hangs.

Sound is in a loop, and now I can see that the Track IR device is on with all leds green, red and blue, after I pressed the reset button and booted windows. Should not those leds be off, as I have not started TrackIR software yet?

Any way I hope they get this fixed, I dont know how good its for my PC to be reseted 5-6 times a day :(
