And the SST is not functional at all- although my computer registers all the buttons correctly, and I even see a red flash animation on the SST tray icon after I press any button, I cannot emulate any keys by them anymore and my mouse stick on the throttle knob isn't being registered as a mouse aswell, also the scrollers under the MFD aren't changing LED brightness anymore, only the stopwatch and time settings work. The problems are that I either get no characters at all or glitchy ones, like 'NP prifele' instead of 'No profile', or Med1 instead of Mode 1, etc. I've already contacted Mad Catz support several times, but it always ended up with them requesting me to try it on another Windows 8 system which I unfortunately can't. But the installation lets me finish and computer recognizes the joystick correctly afterwards, it just cannot remember the time settings, the latched profile button, and displays wrong version information.Īnd at the end of the setup of the SST programming suite I get a blank error window saying only this:īetween each setup I've properly uninstalled the thing with uninstaller, then from device menu, cleaned the Saitek and MadCatz registries as advised, simply all the steps Saitek suggests to do when installing a different version. I connect the flight stick only after I'm asked to, I run it with admin privileges, and I use a back USB2.0 port (tried several of them, same results).

Now that I've upgraded to a new computer with Windows 8 Pro 64bit, I can't properly install the drivers and the programming suite for already a year and half.ĭuring the installation of the drivers (tried the newest version, the 7.0.27.13, the SD6, none worked) I get an error with PlugAndPlay device. I own this flight stick for years and never had any problems with it back in the days on XP.
