x52 pro boot fails when plugged in

[andysim]

Why does my Windows7 fail too boot up when the stick is plugged in? I get blue screens or the screen goes blank. If I plug the stick in after boot up its just fine and stable all day. Have latest drivers installed. Its a new PC from Cyberpower.

 

I can live with plugging when I want to use it but Id rather fix it as it might be a PC problem =(

 

i7 950 (not clocked)

GTX460 260.99 drivers

6 Gig ram

Gigabyte x58a-UD3R

800W power box

Custom built at the factory.

 

 

 

Thanks indvance

Locate the Saitek DirectOutput service and change the startup method to Delayed.

Hope it works - I'd only heard second hand from someone else who used it for the same scenario you're getting, but in my own case I was getting BSODs unplugging the X52 (randomly) or my PC going into limbo/crash state when trying to shut it down until I made this change, and it's been good as gold since.

 

Never had it prevent me from booting up that I can recall; but I do have a device that does (and a very odd one at that) - an android phone when I have it connected via USB just causes my PC to hang in both the BIOS screen and during startup.
