Saitek X45 and Vista Issues

Hello everyone,

I just installed Vista on my PC and my x-45 went crazy. Can you guys help me solve the problem? Mainly, it is the throttle that is not responding correctly, it worked fine with xp. So i'm stuck.

Please advise.

Thanks

Have you installed the relevant Saitek Vista Drivers?

Not readily apparent from your post :)

Yes I did install it. Still the same.

Thanks

The profile format changed- .pro req'd for Vista .dat on XP. They are not interchangeable nor can you convert them.

Also- make sure you are running SST "as admin"

So, new profile and how do I run the SST as admin?

Thanks

Right click on the SST desktop icon, click properties, find & check the "run as admin" checkbox.

Well, I did install new drivers and set the SST to ru as admin. Still the same. I know the x45 is good, when I calibrate it everything works but in lockon or fsx the throttle and rudder are acting strange. Any other ideas?

Thanks

Yes- now you need to re assign the axes within lock on. Click sig \ flight hardware setup \ follow instructions.

OK. Now I feel like a total idiot. It is still not working. Can you please provide me with a specific instructions how to get this thing to work. I dont know what you mean by Click sig \ flight hardware setup. Do you have by a chance a profile for x45?

Again, thanks for all of your help konkussion.
