I slammed it on the desk last night ...
This is the 1st time I've ever slammed a JS down and this is what happens....just my luck
TY Steve....i feel better now :rolleyes: <----shakes fist at you :lol

I have a brand new fighter stick usb i have only pulled outta the box twice, both times it was used for about 20 mins.PM me what you want for it Froger. I took the bottom off mine and looked inside, but i can't see where anything is out of order. :salute
I found it totally unusable and will let it go for a US grant. it truly is brand new.
that is all....froger

honestly, I am very surprised that you're getting this error about the USB device outputting too much power since none of the current CH joysticks output any power. The only CH joystick that would even have the potential of causing something like this would have been the old CH Force FX that had its own power supply and was non-USB.Yeah I don't understand it either. I switched USB devices thinking the problem may be the plug in the computer gone bad, but that's not the case. I plugged the stick into usb on another computer, no error message or computer lockup, but no lights on stick lit up, as if it has no power going to it. My guess is the circuit board fryed on me.
If the CH Fighterstick had its own power supply, then I could see something like this happen but it doesn't because the USB port acts as the power supply for the stick. Have you tried connecting another USB device like a mouse or keyboard to see if you get the same error?
ack-ack
I slammed it on the desk last night and now it's shutting down my computer. At computer startup this morning I got the message to the effect that too much electrical current was coming from USB device and computer will shut down in 10 seconds. I unplugged it, restarted computer, plugged it back in and it locked computer up.
My question is, has this happened to anyone else in the past? Can it be fixed? It's not under any warranty so that option is out.
Can these things be rebuilt, or do I just need to get another one?

The real question, at least as far as I'm concerned, is:
What is it about this game that causes grown (I'm assuming...) men to throw and slam their joysticks around like a child throwing a temper tantrum. Holes in walls? Joysticks ripped asunder?
Say it with me:
GRUUUZE FRABRAAAA
try again:
GRUUZE FRABRAAAA
or you could start singing: "I feel pretty - oh so pretty!"
I'm guessing you don't play golf.
BTW, what the frig does GRUUZE FRABRAAA MEAN?
Friggin weirdo...
I watched my CH stick seriously slammed by a 5'10" tall women and it still works like a champ... To be honest I think it fixed a dead spot in my throttle... <S> CH Products.
So if USB has no current and/or power coming through, how does a USB charge your cell phone.....?The cord/connection provides no power. All the power comes from the power supply in the computer, through the cord, into the iPhone.
i.e.- Plugging iphone into to USB to Sync it also provides enough current to charge battery......correct me if I am wrong ?
Iphone?? :huh :huh :huh :huh
Reading is hard isn't it, check out the quote, they are talking about USB hook-ups and phones.
Hey if its busted up. I need a new 8 way hat and will buy one of em from ya.Hey bud, a friend has blessed me today so I'm going to return the favor. PM me your address and I'll sent you my fighterstick, and I'll even pay for the shipping.
CH dosnt sell the hat switches :furious
Iphone?? :huh :huh :huh :huh
Have no idea what so ever what Iphone has to do with anything.
Uptown, my bad Bro.....you can without a doubt send your stick to CH for refurbis for a resonable fee. Beats replacing hands down. :huh
Iphone.......LMFAO!!! :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

Here's a strange one for ya. I got to jonesin' for the game so I dug my X52 out and yep it's still junk, but for watermelon n grins I hooked the CH stick in, fired up the rig and it's working like a champ right now. I guess the time off did it some good. Either that or the Sioux medicine man I hired fixed it. :headscratch:
CH Products rock :rock
perhaps unplugging it, and maybe turning the PC off and then restarting it at a later time may have reset the USB port / cleared the port from some issueNo, I didn't do anything that I know of, except for let it sit in the closet for a week or so. Everything was still mapped and everything. I did recalibrate it, but i always do that when I log on anyway.
did you perhaps do a "hard Boot" on the CH Fighter Stick? did your controls all stay mapped? or did you have to re set the Stick back p &/or Recalibrate it?
in any case, I am happy for you ~S~

I don't understand what TC meant by "hard booting".
