Title: Cougar Crashes Winxp ???
Post by: Max on June 12, 2002, 02:06:32 PM

I've just unpacked my Cougar HOTAS, loaded the Cougar & Foxy software exactly as instructed.

I've yet to get any stick programming done as XP keeps crashing and restarting. What's going on here??

I didn't have the problems you are experiencing... but a couple of suggestions that seem to be helping various problems:

- Make sure you've downloaded the latest drivers from Thrustmaster.
- Flash the Cougar's bios after installing the most recenet drivers

It's Bills way of telling you that you should have bought a MS product instead.

If you have ever programmed buttons in Ah set up then you
need to remove the JSMAP in settings in AH to a different
folder, there is a conflict with this & cougar.

Try it you may like it, but I do not hold any responseability for
this. :) just kidding, it should work if you ever programmed
AH stick mapping.

Problem seems to be solved... uponswitching from the USB port on my Sony monitor to the port on the puter.
