  1. With regards to the new streamlined application, should I delete Open Beta, or simply rename the folder, or leave it? I know I'll get updates, but just to keep things clean on my system.
  2. Seeing this msg blinking when I go to purchase Normandy 2.0: You already have a license for this product
  3. AngleOff66 - Powered vs unpowered makes a difference on performance due to the voltage pull. Unpowered is using the PC for voltage, and you have 7-10 devices all pulling from one connected port on the PC, whereas on a powered hug, each port is individually powered by the external DC voltage plugged in to its power source. No bottleneck. :My problem is the Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS is vulnerable to any power fluxuations and can burn out the PCB. But I THINK as long as I have it plugged into my UPS, that should take care of any power spikes.
  4. I am looking for a good, powered hub, that doesn't spike up and down - in other words, Thrustmaster Warthog friendly. I lost the PCB board on my throttle some time ago, and I've been weary of plugging it into a powered hub again. Currently, I have about ten peripherals using USB. The only thing I am running on my PC is DCS. With so many USB items, powered is definitely the way to go. Especially, plugged into one port on the PC. I welcome any suggestions for a good hub that I cam mount on my sim seat and role with.
  5. I'm sure you know the deal with Dell/Alienware ram. This is a set of two sticks - Kingston Fury HyperX DDR4 32GB (2x16GB) 2933Mhz XMP ready. I just bit the bullet and did a full upgrade to 64GB 3200Mhz on my Aurora R9. $100. Domestic US only. Message me if you're interested.
  6. I have mine plugged into the USB-C port as well.
  7. Did things get jittery to you? I noticed it when flying low to the ground.
  8. Question: Is anyone else having an issue with dual throttle positioning in the hornet? I noticed that the right engine throttle keeps positioning slightly ahead of the left - when I have bock locked together on the warthog. And it affects flight, drifting to the left until I unlock the two and adjust until they're even in the cockpit.
  9. How do I disable anti aliasing in the Quest 2 Link?
  10. No. I sent the board along with the usb still connected to it. I'm sure there is soldering on his end, because he changes out the chip.
  11. SOH, just installed the repaired board and it works great.
  12. Developer model available. I installed on my laptop a few days ago. So far, it feels pretty stable for dev model.
  13. Has anyone tried running DCS on Windows 11 yet? Curious to how it performs.
  14. Has yours arrived to him yet? He works pretty fast! I should have mine back this coming Friday.
  15. He has repaired the board and shipping it back! Being grounded is a bitch! LOL
  16. Thinking the same thing! I just grabbed 2 extensions for that very reason.
  17. I was told this occurs a lot from power surges while plugged into a powered USB hub. Not sure how accurate that is, because yes, I was plugged into a powered hub BUT that hub is plugged into an uninterruptible power supply - on the "battery backup" side. But just in case, from now on I'm plugging the throttle and stick directly to my PC.
  18. I'll do you one better - here's the ebay link! https://www.ebay.com/itm/233195609114?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3D949f5faefab0445fb661c6b44ed33284%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D15%26sd%3D233195609114%26itm%3D233195609114%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2380057%26brand%3DThrustmaster&_trksid=p2380057.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3A71866c1f-d510-11eb-b30b-caea7ec31402|parentrq%3A3f095e9817a0a6e6ae55e696ffee38e2|iid%3A1
  19. Sent my PCB off for repair to the Ebay merchant. What is usually the major cause of the PCB failing?
  20. TM says it's out of warranty (I thought the warranty was 2 years?). It appears to be a bad PCB. I found a guy on Ebay that does these repairs, which is a lot cheaper than having TM send me a new board.
  21. I contacted TM tech support. Just now uploaded them the info they wanted. I think it's still under warranty, bought it April 2020.
  22. Didn't work. Works fine on the joystick, but the system never fully recognizes the throttle in order to reload the firmware. And I have confirmed that the issue is the throttle; not the PC - got the same message when I plugged the throttle into my laptop.
  23. I'm running my sim gear off a powered usb hub. So I tried plugging into a usb port off the back of the PC. No change. I have restarted Windows several times. The power down was the last option. I reinstalled the drivers to every USB device. No change. Right now I have it unplugged from the PC, altogether, thinking maybe a complete power drain from the electronics of the throttle might do the trick. GaryR, yes. When I look in the game controller control panel, the throttle doesn't show up. I do usually run a Target script for the throttle, but I didn't start that up at all.
  24. This just started today... Windows won't recognize my throttle: Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed). I've tried a different usb port, uninstalling and reinstalling the device, disabling and re-enabling the device. Powered off the PC and unplugged, left it for about 5 minutes to be sure all power was drained. Started everything up and plugged the usb devices in, one at a time. All works fine, except the throttle. Also reinstalled the Thrustmaster drivers, to no avail.
