I have FS9 installed with the patch and last few times I have gone into the program to fly all my assignments for my X-45 were gone.I had to reassign them again in the control settings screen.This has now happened 4 times and I have no idea whats going on,the x-45 shows up under the joystick and I went back into My ComputerJoysticks and calibrated again.Does anyone have any ideas what might be wrong?

If the assignments are all done via FS and not through the Saitek s/ware try editing fs9.cfg as follows.Find the {joystick} (square brakets) section and add 'LOCKED=1' as the top line immediately below the section title.If that doesn't cure it you can always remove the line.HTH
