Ok, I just got a TrackIR and now the sensor screen device starts and the yellow light blinks but then the sensor turns its self off, even though it it still connectd to the computer, What should I do?

Check their site for newer drivers? Try a different USB port?

Are you using a TrackClip pro, or the standard hat clip?

In addition to the above are you plugging the unit directly into a port on the computer itself or into a USB hub of some sort (and if the latter is it a passive hub or a powered one?)

The TIR unit works best when plugged directly into a USB 2.0 port on the computer itself. I found I got problems when I briefly plugged mine into a passive (unpowered) hub as it turned out the hub was the older USB 1.0 type (too slow) and it didn't provide enough 'juice' to power the TIR unit correctly.

ok....I found out what the problem was. I had the sensor set to the Pro setting instead of the vector setting. Works fine now! Thanks for your help everyone!:applause:
