June 30, 201114 yr I`m ready to throw my Saitek Yoke and Peddles out the window Finnaly got my PC moved from the kitchen to a desk, set up my yoke and stuff the same as I had on my old system and I`m having all sorts of problems. The yoke peddles and throttle have only seen a month of daylight before my old rig incident. I had it working flawlessly.Tried a test flight tonight and all sorts of strange stuff happening. Toe brakes not working (yes I`ve reveresed the axis), only turning to a point and you can see this in the VC cockpit yoke, can`t release the brakes with the toe brakes. Assinged pitch up and down to one of the rocker switches on the yoke and flaps up/down increments to a throttle rocker switch. They just do what they want I`ve deleted all my old joystick assignments manually through the gui and re-assigned all the Saiteck ones.I`m hoping to use my old Logitech 3dpro for EZCA as it`s mostly setup with that and still seems to work for view switcheng etc.The only other thing I can think of doing is reinstalling everything which I`m not into because I`ve just bloody done that on this system I just don`t get it I had this working all perfectly before and even had certain aircraft setup through FSUIPC. I`ve not touched anything in FSUIPC apart from wind smoothing.Hopefully someone can help before I loose the plot re-installing everything.Update................................This morning I unplugged my old stick and Saitek Yoke, Pedlles and Quadrant. Restarted my PC then plugged the Saitek stuff back into the usb. Now it is dead!? The power light is on on the throttles nothing on the peddles and the yoke display. I`ve tried re-installing the drivers via the disk but it just hangs at please connect your controllers, the next button is not available to push. I`m eally at my wits end with this and ready to re-install windows the lot.Does anyone know where to do delete the registrey keys for the controllers? It`s like a registrey thing I think.Edit........................It gets stranger. I found out where all the registrey entries were deleted the lot. Deleted the drivers then just plugged the pedals in and they work. Can`t say the same for the yoke and quadrent. Don`t get a windows usb noise either when I plug in or unplug. I reckon it`s goosed. In the process of emailing tech support although I`ve not heard anything since this morning appart from having an autameted ticket sent.

Go to the Saitek site and download the latest software for the yoke and pedals for your OS.As for buttons doing their own thing, make sure you delete every unwanted joystick button and axis definition from EVERY controller that FSX sees connected to your system.

It`s just not detecting the yoke at all when plugged in. All drivers and bios up to date and all usb ports working. Detects the pedals fine on thier own very strange.Thanks My youtube channel for HD FSX Videos http://www.youtube.com/user/Doogiereid?feature=mhee Doogie Reid
July 1, 201114 yr Initially I had my controllers plugged into a powered 8 port USB hub that went into a USB 3.0 port on the MB. I had detection issues with this, so I plugged the hub into a USB 2.0 port (red) on my p8p67 Deluxe MB. Detection does not seem to be a problem now.

I`ve tried the yoke in hte GF`s PC and it`s not working either. Time to start hunting for the receipt I think. Hope I can find it My youtube channel for HD FSX Videos http://www.youtube.com/user/Doogiereid?feature=mhee Doogie Reid

July 3, 201114 yr I had issues like that and tried everything with no luck, I even called Tech support who are totally useless. I did a system restore to a earlier time and wah la everything works fine. Also I don't use the Saitek drivers just the windows ones, except for my Multi Panel.
