I have a Saitek pro flight yoke as my controller along side the rudder pedals. I run fsx on Windows 8 and never had a problem until now. Recently my yoke has been responding in fsx and then just stops responding all of a sudden mid flight. It seems to happen usually when I switch program like say I go on google to try and find charts, and I go back into the sim and it's no longer responding. it also does it sometimes even without a change of programs!

 

I have tried uninstalling the drivers and re-installing them. I have tried a bunch of things but nothing has worked.

 

By the way the rudder and throttle quadrant become unresponding at the same time as the yoke.

 

Any help much appreciated, Robbie.
