Invalid pointer operation + no joystics shown

Featured Replies

I'm having some problems with Linda, trying to use it first time now with my MCP Combo and other hardware. But I'm getting 'Invalid pointer operation.' error after startup and Linda also doesn't show any joysticks listed, I can see the joysticks fine in windows control panel. In configuration checklist it shows 'Everything is ok!' on Joysticks, MCP Combo and FSUIPC sections. Just no joysticks listed anywhere. Any help will be appreciated, this looks easy way to configure the MCP Combo and joysticks I have, but it doesn't seem to work for me. sad.png

1. Windows Vista 64 Ultimate, Asus P6T, i7 950, 6GB RAM, GTX480; Saitex X52, Saitek rudder pedals, MCP Combo, custom built controller with BU036X and old USB pad (these show as joystics to windows). 2. Updated FSUIPC, deleted FSUIPC.ini, started FSX to create default .ini, closed it and started Linda. Setup the MCP Combo port. Hyppe

In the modules folder, sorry forget to mention, seemed kinda obvious.

Obvious, but... Thinking.gif Ok, can you try to:1. Unplug ALL your joysticks2. Reboot the system (sorry for that stupid step)3. Try to run LINDA again.. The setup seems to be correct, so we need to find what LINDA's subsystem fails..

That didn't help, still the same :(

  • Commercial Member

Have to clarify this moment, sorry. LINDA doesn't run even with NO joysticks plugged in?Check your PM.
