I updated sound card drivers etc.. no luck. Interestingly the joystick is definitely connected as in the moment before the message pops up I am able to move it around and windows shows the input correctly. Seems to be a driver type issue.... I really like this joystick and dont want to go buy an X-52 unless i absolutely have to.

When I click on the recorder tab I get this error:


I downloaded the FF2 software from the internets and uninstalled then reinstalled the drivers. This did not fix the issue. It did however break my old config files so my Jumpgate config with the binds I had made with the now unusable recorder broke.

Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone had some suggestions for fixing it.
