Leader98 Posted November 4, 2021 Posted November 4, 2021 Why do you think disconnecting the G2 would make any difference? When running Windows Updates disconnecting the G2 CAN make a difference as it happened twice until now that having the G2 connected resulted in a broken Windows update...
Copprhead Posted November 4, 2021 Posted November 4, 2021 I always unplug the power supply of the G2 when I don't have it in use. IIRC that is/was recommended the HP developers/product manager.
Burt Posted November 4, 2021 Author Posted November 4, 2021 Well I have always wondered if it would interfere with a DCS update but I got my answer thx SoH !

speed-of-heat Posted November 4, 2021 Posted November 4, 2021 @Burt but as a general rule of thumb I turn off my g2 when I’m not using it, I have smart plug because it’s difficult to reach. 1 SYSTEM SPECS: Hardware AMD 9800X3D, 64Gb RAM, 4090 FE, Virpil T50CM3 Throttle, WinWIng Orion 2 & F-16EX + MFG Crosswinds V2, Varjo Aero SOFTWARE: Microsoft Windows 11, VoiceAttack & VAICOM PRO YOUTUBE CHANNEL: @speed-of-heat
Burt Posted November 5, 2021 Author Posted November 5, 2021 Okay gotcha. This rig only comes on when I’m playing DCS and shuts down when I’m done. Thanks !

speed-of-heat Posted November 5, 2021 Posted November 5, 2021 The g2 has a separate power supply, it’s recommended to turn it off. 1 SYSTEM SPECS: Hardware AMD 9800X3D, 64Gb RAM, 4090 FE, Virpil T50CM3 Throttle, WinWIng Orion 2 & F-16EX + MFG Crosswinds V2, Varjo Aero SOFTWARE: Microsoft Windows 11, VoiceAttack & VAICOM PRO YOUTUBE CHANNEL: @speed-of-heat
