Hi bob i had a look at the device properties. Everything great except the mouse ministick.where you can set the null zones the red line that shows you if its central or not was 3/4 to the right. I wonder if its that. I centered the red line and clicked apply.... going to fly see how it goes.

nice one bob will give that a try. i didnt know you could do that. :smile:

no worries Bob. no i didnt calibrate it, i have the joystick unchecked as a control in p3d as im using fsuipc. (maybe i should use the axis's with p3d control and the other button with fsuipc) im not sure how to do the w7 devices to check to be honest.

put a band round it tried a different usb port. full power no problem 30 mins in to the flightcut throttle for decent and hey presto off the cursor goes again. think its time to bin the joystick, its only 3 months old

Bob is that The cable that links the stick to the throttle ..?

thanks for the reply when the problem 1st started i deleted saitek software, fsuipc, then ezdok to rule those out, but still same problem so i deleted p3d and reinstalled it. same problem.... i deleted all key assignment in p3d and it was ok for a couple of flights, then all of a sudden its gone mad again. the cables seem fine, i might try deleting the joystick and re install in a different usb port

Hi all i have p3d v3.3.5 on windows 7 im using a saitek x52 with fsuipc for joystick assingments, im also using ezdok for views. everytime i engage full throttle the mouse cursor goes to the right hand side of the screen. i try using the mouse to reposition the cursor and it just fights with me wanting to go to the right of the screen constantly. i unplug the joystick and the problem is solved. BUT ..... when i try to click with the mouse the computer beeps every button press. i have tried all sorts and im at my wits end now please someone help

tried new mouse .... usb type and the old type with the green plug.... no joy managed to close the sim down, and it was still playing up... maybe it could be pc, or could sim have triggered it. as if sims not running everything is fine.

im going to borrow one from work bob and try it at dinner time

hi all im using p3d v3.3.5 and fsuipc and ezdok For some unknown reason, when i have landed and only when i have landed and in no other part of the flight, and i use my mouse to pan around the cockpit, it goes mad and just goes is full circle in the direction i was intending to look. if i unplug my joystick, i can pan around the cockpit, but if i try to use the mouse button to click on something it stops working and all i get is a beep every time i press a mouse button. my only escape is then to restart my computer. not good when im trying to file a pirep to the VA. please help or the computer get battered by a rubber mallet.

Hi all thanks for your replies. I think i had an old version of egcn.... i updated it and all is well now. Many thanks andrew

Its seem to be if i have the slightest of movement on the z axis (rudder) on my stick. I have deleted the z axis in p3d and its ok i think now

My speed brake keeps extending on its own accord.... it happens with all my aircraft.... i have fsuipc.... would could be causing it

Thanks sino Hi im using airac 1604 across all my add ons scenery im using orbx and uk2000 airports

Hi all Im doing ils approach 02Z in to EGCN. I intercept the localizer and gs at 1500ft. As i approach the runway threshold im a few hundred feet to high. My qnh is set in line with asn. One thing i do notice wrong (pmdg 737) is i set the course to 019 from what my fmc is telling me but it automatically changes to 020 as per what the charts are telling me. I have had approx 10 attempts at this approach and still too high. My nav radios are on the correct frequency. The 2 diamonds are bang on center... i dont get it!!!!

Found the solution. Open the CMD prompt Type in " netsh winsock reset " Restart computer Run installer as admin Worked a treat for me.

Cheers guys. Only reason I asked Wether it was worth it, was i saw a video of a well known u tube person comparing v3 to v2.5 and he did not really get any improvement on VAS and FPS it did utilise his GPU more and that was about it. Which I thought was very dissapointing.

Hi all if I upgrade from 2.5 to v3. Will I have to re-install my add ons one by one. such as orbx sceneries and my pmdg 737 and Rex etc Is v3 worth splashing out on?

Hi all i am having problems with out of sync taxiways and gates. i'm using various add on's which may affect but i'm not sure...., i'm using Pro Atc X, GSX. so when i land at an airport pro atc x says park at gate 15, so i use gsx to request the follow me and it takes me over grass rather than taxiways and the gate it sends me to could be in a car park or anywhere, even with warp me there option. even when starting the p3d at a gate i have aircraft parked next to me half over my aircraft. i have used the makerunways software as instructed in pro atc x setup. is it a P3D issue or an add on issue? any advice would be great

hi all i have been running p3d v2.5 in full screen, so the sim take up the entire sceen for over a year. this weekend when the sim loaded in full screen it just glitched and went in to a small screen in the middle of my monitor, i clicked the expand tap at the top right, i get full screen but im stuck with the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, i have tried alt+enter but i cant get true full screen??? any ideas ?

Hi Vonmar thanks again. it worked before, does that mean i have to buy the full software or just a new licence?

Hi VONMAR the trick download was a registry changer and a fsx file that you drop into p3d main folder and it tricks the installer in to thinking its going in to fsx, when really its p3d. i purchased pmdg737 on disk format but its not the p3d version its the fsx version. i had it installed on my old hard drive and it worked perfectly in p3d. i just used the auto installer file on the disc to install it.

Hi all i have recently bought a new hard drive. put windows 7 on. installed prepar3d v2.5. used the trick download to enable me to install fsx files in to prepar3d. i installed my pmdg 737 ngx software but it did not ask me for the security key. once loaded into p3d the aircraft is cold and dark, it does not do the 10 second countdown, and the switches are non operative its dead. anyone help please.
