Item still for sale

Thanks guys

--

The original quote I pasted for $33.33 was without any declared price. This time I put in $150 US declared customs value and got a slightly higher shipping rate at $47.97. The difference is I'll be using my own packaging (the dimensions aren't exact but close to what I'll use). You chose FedEx packaging in your quote. See attached.

I've been sending messages to users but they don't show in my SENT box. I even sent myself a test message to make sure the PMs were actually sending, and I got my own PM but a copy didn't show anywhere in my inbox. Something wrong with the PM system?

Item is sold

Replied, but my SENT box doesn't show any messages sent. Not sure what is going on with the private message system.

Fakum, for some reason the ED forums isn't letting me send you a reply to the private message. Either that or my SENT box is bugged and I actually sent you like 5 messages lol. To reply: No, $200 is not right. Did you look at the FedEx Ground option? 1. Ship From / To Help Edit From: Verdun, H3E 1B9, Canada | To: Attleboro, 02703, United States End of day(2 Business Days) FedEx International Ground® 33.33

I want to sell them together, because the throttle plugs into the stick. The last time I used them, everything worked perfectly. They've been in an airtight box in a dry and cool storage area.

I suspect it stuck to the bubble wrapping). You can either contact Thrustmaster for a replacement or use a substitute. I used the cap from a tube of travel toothpaste with the pointy end inside for a while. It worked pretty well.

Listing includes: - Saitek Pro Flight Yoke (includes 1 throttle quad, plugs into yoke) - Additional Saitek Throttle quad (USB) - Extra throttle lever heads (2x black, 3x red, 3x blue) - 2x custom levers (speed brake & flaps) $130 US Ships from Quebec, Canada H3E 1B9 Package weight is 7.7 lbs / 3.5 kg Will ship to US / Canada ONLY Ships through Canada Post / USPS or FedEx *All shipping costs are paid by you. Please use the zip code + weight to find a shipping estimate with your preferred shipping carrier Note: Because of the custom throttle heads (speed brake and flaps), the ends of the levers had to be modified to make them fit. Due to these modifications, the default throttle heads (black, red, blue) will not snap into place. A bit of tape wrapped around the ends of the levers is enough to hold the default throttle heads in place. (or any other kind of cushioning, i.e. paper, plastic wrap, etc.) What looks like dust on some of the throttle levers is just a bit of tape residue left over from fitting the custom lever heads.

Nothing in DCS audio options for setting what I want to use as my preferred audio device (USB Headset, Windows default audio, etc.) Is there a config file somewhere I can set this?

Is this project dead?

Is this project dead?

You called it...that was totally it. I unplugged my USB hub (all my flight stuff is connected to it) and NT Kernel & System dropped back to 0% CPU use. Plugged it back, and it stayed at 0. That's so odd that a USB driver would cause issues with DCS but not any other game I use my joystick/throttle stuff for (FSX, War Thunder, Planetside 2, etc.). Thanks for the tips. Now I know what to do.

Did more testing in resource monitor. I copied the list of modules associated with NT Kernel & System after a fresh reboot, ran DCS, then copied the list again to compare. There is one module that isn't in the list after exiting DCS. System 4 spsys.sys 6.1.7127.0 C:\Windows\system32\drivers\spsys.sys I don't know what that does, but on a fresh windows reboot it's running, but after I play and exit DCS it's not in the list anymore. Could this be part of the issue?

All my drivers are up to date. I disabled that when I built my computer. All drivers for all devices are up to date. I keep up on my system maintenance. If it was a USB issue, then I would see it on other games. DCS is the only one, and I play a lot of different games. I play different missions, the issue happens on all of them. My system isn't swapping. Mine is at normal.

I guess I'm stuck with this.

I checked the resource monitor after another DCS session. This time it's only at 27-30% CPU usage, but everything else seems to be the same. Most of the modules using up the CPU are mostly drivers in the system32 folder, with the exception of two from the syswow64 folder. There are a lot...I have no clue what I'm looking for at this point. It would be great if someone from ED could come in here and help me officially as support for their product, or maybe I should just make a support ticket at this point?

And this is after the reboot.

Just finished a game of DCS, exited, and took screenshots of the processes and performance tabs of the task manager. Still getting 50% CPU usage.

No, not using anti-virus. I ran the repair option from a command prompt and it downloaded and applied some files. Will test to see if it fixed the issue. I'm about to fire DCS back up, so I'll have a look after closing it down. It's just so weird that out of all my games, DCS is the only one that does this.

1.2.5 is an earlier version and not compatible with the current versions of multiplayer servers. How is this fixing my problem? Also, I'm running the game from the default shortcut which does point to DCS_Updater.exe, and after exiting the game my CPU usage is still at 50% from Windows NT Kernel & System.
