Hi Everyone. I’ve got bad news. I Got it fixed =( The problem seems to be from my usb drivers crashing with saitek yoke driver or my driver was just corrupted. As a lot of you told me to update I did. But last week I learned that gigabyte does not upgrade my usbs drivers anymore. So then I bought A PCI usb 2.0. SO for anyone who faces this problem do the following. Make sure that you switch off the usb power safe in Win 7, and that the Windows are at high performance and does not go to sleep insert usb into every usb port, as you might have put ten it into a damage usb port check if your usb drivers is up to date go into your bio of your mb and see if all your seems to you to be correct Check if the yoke works on other pc in the house. Sometimes USB support in you bios causes this problem so make sure that that is disabled The Saitek yoke use a lot of power. Try using a power usb hub as, as a lack of power cause this problem Buy a pci usb card 2.0 or 3.0. take it to a pc clinic Thank you all for your support, I hope this helps some1 with the same problem P.s I do not take any respossibilitys if your pc break or crash id trying the methords

HaHAHAHAHAHA. gonna be stuck like the b787 for 4 month till problem solved. . LOL

<p>Thank you everyone. Im going to keep the yoke. Strangly the yoke did work in the begining for long time. Then stupidly I restarted the pc and then bang stoped working. Ill add a usb card in future and that might help stoped the problem. To be honest I thinking on staying on windows 7. Im affraid I will it wont work on xp as well. Im just bit lost why it does work on my laptop win 7 and not on the pc. Maybe the power hub I bought is not working as it should..<br /> If this is a windwos 7 problem saitek must remove the tag on their box saying it is compatible for win 7..<br /> thank's for the replies. and let you know if I get it fixed and hopefully help some1 with the same problem</p>

Hi eveyone. Well I got me a new yoke, and the same problem. I think power problem or usb problem. What I saw is that one of the yoke hub failed to install correctly, which might be a power problem. . =D

=D I will surely let you all know what the problem is. And hopefully all your advice will help someone with this problem. Thank you all P.S Support came back to me, they say maybe have to get me a USB card....

lets see what happens. But sure it will switch off. =P Thnak you

Sadly my BIO's do not have legancy usb support, nor disable 2.0, just 3.0. =( SO im going to take in to a pc clinic so they can check for me if the 2nd yoke stops working

http://www.saitekforum.com/showthread.php?t=18513 http://www.fixya.com/support/t3314727-saitek_pro_flight_yoke_quadrant_stop yes thank you everyone for helping. Seems I maybe have a power problem. But I will exchange it for a new one in case there is a problem with that this yoke, If the new one fails to work properly, Ill keep it for the future untill I this one is being upgraded or take to pc clinic to fix this problem, I also contacted Saitek Via email, and gave them the link for this discusion. Sadly couldn't get it fix, but all learned me alot of thing on the pc as well as problem I saw on the pc that going to need fixing asap. Thank you Johann Botes

I was in the event view when it locked up. Nothing showed up at those times with a warning sighn I also went to device manger and said the device is working properly. I've notice that the time keeps going to 0000 after a few min it locked up and then returend to pc time and the returned to 0000 and then went back to pc time. I called the store they said I only need the bill, they can ecchange it for me.
