RedRiver Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Hmm... Im on my third X52 stick. Im not satisfied with the product. I havent seen the problem you got. It sound more like software than hardware. This isnt what you want to hear... Uninstall. Reinstall latest SST software AND drivers. Make sure you are downloading from english site (or american whatever). Just dont download from smaller countries. I know the Swedish site is very bad. I dont think it even got the drivers for the X52.. Just X45.. Good Luck!

m0unta1n6uy Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I dont have that specific problem, however, I do have a problem when trying to assign buttons in lomac. I dont use the stick programming software that came with the stick. Although there are a FEW nice functions, I find it to mostly be a waste of time. When I amattempting to assign a button in lomac, and I click the change button, the damned mouse scroll wheel (which lomac reads as buttons 33 and 34) chatters so much that it sends lomac signal BEFORE I can press the button I want...I have to click the change button 10-15 times before I get a moment WITHOUT chatter from the wheel, and even then I have to be QUICK with the button I want to use, or the chatter starts again. I just recently purchased this stick and I am so disappointed with it that I MAY go back to using my old Suncom SFS...... of all the years of using it, it only NOW has a single burnt out pot.... So to be short, I feel yourt pain man.... m0untain6uy [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] **Russian aircraft in the Colorado Rockies** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They 'Say' they are making a profile converter. but I am pissed they changed formats 'Again' and did not release a profile converter! I'll be %$$%# damned if I am going to make new profiles again, I just made all new profiles when I bought new Saitek Stick 2 freking months ago! I spent a week making new profiles, and was really pissed when they changed to new profiles again! :doh: :no_sad: http://www.saitekforum.com/ ASUS Strix Z790-H, i9-13900, WartHog HOTAS and MFG Crosswind G.Skill 64 GB Ram, 2TB SSD EVGA Nvidia RTX 2080-TI 55" Sony OLED TV, Oculus VR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitman Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 You shouldnt have had to unless you were running vista...thats why they are in beta state. They add support to Vista and thats it. If you dont have Vista you dont need em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt.LoneRanger Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I should have just saved my cash and bought a cougar..... If you want to stay with WinXP 32bit forever, that's fine, but you won't get drivers for 64bit or Vista. :mad: TM obviously has given up supporting that hardware - for almost any other stick and wheel there are newer drivers for other systems.

Ramstein Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I do say in Saitek's defense, the stick is really good, I am very happy, but damned, these profile format changes really annoy me. They are slower than hell in making software, and play games making new profile formats more than most people in many other countries change their freeking underwear. I expect they wil make the profile converter soon, but it was a dirty trick making a new profile format only 3 months after releasing the X52 Pro. :cry: ASUS Strix Z790-H, i9-13900, WartHog HOTAS and MFG Crosswind G.Skill 64 GB Ram, 2TB SSD EVGA Nvidia RTX 2080-TI 55" Sony OLED TV, Oculus VR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
