I haven't even setup CH manager after this latest win xp install.
Ch manager does not recognize or configure Ch pro rudders that is connected via USB adaptor.
The problem is not limited to the rudders.
Both the rudders and combat-stick can be setup without CH manager in win-xp
I used Ch manager before this recent win-xp install and had the same problems and the rudders were connected via Gameport.. Fresh install after building my phenom II system.
I currently use all CH USB products: Fighterstick, USB Throttle and USB Pro Pedals.
I gang them together in the Manager, nothing more. I saved the ganged set.
When I log into my computer, which I turn off after flying, I immediately bring up the CH Manager and DL the
ganged set to the stick. I do it every time my computer is shut off for any reason.
All my stick settings are then set up in AH2.
If I don't the DL to the stick on startup, 50% of the time the stick is partially inop.
One of the earliest issues I had with CH was they didn't "flash" the stick with the settings (unavailable).
TM did and I think I dl'd the stick settings maybe 2X in the 4-5 years I used it.
You might want to give it a try.
Hope this helps.

On a side note...
Speaking of CH shortfalls. They are only set up for 32 buttons. And yes, I use all 32 of them and have room for 28 more with a MFP thats not usable due to their self imposed button limit. I wonder when they plan to increase it since they are making products that allow more than 32 buttons.
