TM Warthog Target error cannot connect

[anlq]

I just got my new TM warthog and trying to install Target, after finish installing I opened the software and got this error, I try asking google but no similar error mentioned. Anyone has the same error plz help me out ? :(

I tried to execute with compatibility mode and administrative privilege but no luck

I know you said you installed TARGET, but did you install the actual TM Warthog drivers for it?

The HOTAS Warthog - 2014_TMWH_1 drivers?

Yes, I installed Warthog driver before installing Target.

That is strange.

I would uninstall both completely, and then reboot.

Install the Warthog drivers first, if I recall correctly you will not want to plug the stick and throttle in until the installation process prompts you to. You should not need to install in compatibility mode.

I would plug them directly into your USB 2 ports coming from your motherboard, rather than a hub.

Once drivers are installed, check your joystick config in windows and see if the axis and buttons are recognized properly.

 

Once installation is completed successfully, then install TARGET.

I did as instruction, installing this shouldn't be a problem. I tried this also.

Stick and throttle are now working normally, except Target. :doh:

Still same error message in TARGET?

It's still the same error.

I tried removing saitek driver (old X-52 pro joystick) and enabling xHCI in BIOS (I had to disable to turn off usb 3.0 which is not friendly to Saitek X-52 pro).

I sent message to Target developer, I hope they'll have answer soon.

Please let us know what you hear from TM? I have installed Target on at least six difference computers and have never seen nor heard of this one.

 

Also, is this the latest version of Target? I am still using the previous version due to bugs with the latest release.

OK I'll post their answer here.

I found this solution, maybe I'll try when I get home, now I'm at work.

I contacted someone on the Facebook page of Thrustmaster, he answered that I have to install with Administrative account. The fact is this is my home PC, so Im using only admin account. I tried many ways like disabling Anti-virus, run in compability mode, reinstall .NET framework. The weird thing is Target installation os always successfully, but then no Tmservice or FAST something is found on services.msc. :doh:

Reinstall windows is the last solution I want to do.

It has been 4 days and I haven't got any final answer. I found many thread/post related to software malfunction, it seems target is not reliable.

After digging more about the bug using Dependency Walker (a debug tool), it came up with an announce of irrelevent CPU/Account something. My head is spinning right now :mad: :huh:

Does the TM fast service running?

[Mud]

anlq, have you tried with the older version of TARGET?

 

If you don't have it anymore I can upload it for you tonight.

No sir, no TM fast service is found

Thank you for your kindness. I managed to find Target 1.0 but it's still the same. :cry:

[hansangb]

And you did try USB 2.0 right? If not, give it a shot. And you called TM support?

throttle

 

i just got the same problem on my windows 10 machine.

tmservice.exe just wont start, not even manually.

 

The Target software install without errors.

Warthog throttle is reconized in device manager.

 

Can anyone give me a hint on how to get this software working?
