Hi, I wonder if anybody can help me to get my Saitek Pro Rudder Pedals working in Windows 7 x64.
Basically, my problem is that when I plug the pedals, Windows 7 doesn't recognize it, and it appears as 'Unknown Device' in Device Manager. When I launch SD6 drivers from Saitek website, I get stuck at "plug in the controller..." page: I do plug in, but Next button remains disabled, and I cannot press it.
I also tried to explicitly point Windows to C:/windows/temp/saitek/bla-bla-bla folder, but this didn't help - it says that it cannot find suitable drivers there.
I also have Saitek X65, so I unplugged it, removed SST software and tried again - no luck.
I tested my pedals with Ubuntu laptop, and everything works fine, so it doesn't seem to be a hardware issue.
Generally I have a feeling that SD6 version is simply too old and is designed for WinXP. Fine, I don't really want to program the pedals, so any generic microsoft driver would be enough. Unfortunately I have no idea how to tell Windows that this 'Unknown Device' is just a 3-axis HID.
Is there any option to fix this, or shall I just return the pedals to the shop?
