February 14, 201214 yr I've used ch yoke and pedals for years. Now have windows 7 and they still are going strong. I calibrate with ch control manager. Now I have ch throttle quad. It is recognized in windows and works there. When I re-install ch control manager the quad shows on the cm list but doesn't function at all in cm test calibrate, in windows, or fsx. I've tried ch cm rescan many times. If anybody knows how to make this work I am really anxious to try this thing out.Eric
February 14, 201214 yr I have the CH Yoke, Pedals and Throttle Quadrant myslef, using them for years.Use USB Deview here to debug your USB ports (stop, restart, etc.).Then use FSUIPC4 to calibrate and assign all your hardware and never look back. Great FSUIPC Guide by John Cook here.Also, try and switch USB ports, and preferably use USB ports on the motherboard (if available). If you must use a hub, make sure its powered if other devices beyond the 3 CH devices are attached to the hub.Cheers,- jahman. Edited February 14, 201214 yr by jahman
February 14, 201214 yr In another thread Bob Church, the know-all of joysticks and CH, mentioned that CH Control Manager doesn't like to have any CH sticks attached to USB 3.0 ports. Make sure that you are using a USB 2.0 or lower for compatibility.

February 15, 201214 yr Author Thanks for the info. It was the usb port. Switched to usb 2 and works perfectly with ch. I guess I will keep on using ch control manager. I am used to it and has served me well over the years. I believe the throttle quad is going to be a much appreciated piece of hardware. Eric

March 14, 201214 yr Hi LMaire,You might want to check the users manual for the motherboard. I was just looking at a review at one of the sites that claimed the ASUS Maximus 4, at least the version they were testting, did have a lot of USB3.0 ports it's true, but there were also supposedly 9 USB 2.0/1.1 ports, one on the back used for something called "ROG", and then 8 more internally on the motherboard. I got the impression it was 4 of those 10-pin connectors with one of the corner pins blocked. You need to get those slot cover things with the USB plugs on them and plug them into those, you get two ports from each. Amazon has them for a few dollars.If not and you've got a free PCI slot, Amazon also sells a bunch of PCI->USB cards that handle USB 1.1 and 2.0, usually 4 or 5 ports. I use an IOGear card myself, but Amazon has some for as little as $5 it seems, and you can always plug external hubs into those if you should need more. It's really pretty rare for a motherboard to come with no 2.0/1.1 ports, a lot of the 1.1 and 2.0 devices seem to have problems with 3.0.Best regards,- BobThe StickWorkshttp://www.stickworks.com
