December 2, 201213 yr Commercial Member Does anyone know if there is a fix to prevent the Saitek Cyborg X from dropping out of FSX? It still works for the programmed buttons I set in Profiler but the throttle axis and propeller axis stop working after awhile. A Switch to window mode seems to fix them. I have the latest Windows 7/8 64 Saitek drivers installed. Cheers jja Jim Allen[email protected]SkyPilot Software home of FSXAssist / P3DAssist
December 3, 201213 yr Are you using windows 8? There's some kind of bug in W8 that causes FSX or P3D to forget it has a joystick. It's not just Saitek.
December 3, 201213 yr Author Commercial Member LOL Yes Win 8. Thanks jja Jim Allen[email protected]SkyPilot Software home of FSXAssist / P3DAssist
December 3, 201213 yr Yup same issue here... Also had it happen tonight with CH force feedback 2. I am running Win 8 64bit. Have to say it runs FSX better than windows 7 "for me". If we get the joystick issue fixed I will be very happy with FSX. I have not run into those bloody OOM yet with WIN 8.

December 3, 201213 yr Is it plugged into a USB 3.0 port by any chance? I've had trouble with some of my Saitek hardware using 3.0, but 2.0 works great. - Aaron

December 3, 201213 yr Doesn't FSX access all joysticks/controllers via DirectInput? I would think the problem lies somewhere in there. scott s. .
December 3, 201213 yr Author Commercial Member I uninstalled EZDOK and installed the awesome OPUS FSX software which seems to have fixed the problem. Cheers jja Jim Allen[email protected]SkyPilot Software home of FSXAssist / P3DAssist
