Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted May 14, 2015 Aerosoft Share Posted May 14, 2015 If this on Windows 8 it's an issue that is caused by the OS. Try updating the drivers and if that does not work try without the drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted May 14, 2015 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted May 14, 2015 I had the same problem in Windows 8.0. Some sort of energy management bug in the Windows USB layer. I fixed the problem by using FSUIPC. It access the joystick differently and therefore does not suffer from the Windows bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captain911 2 Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 Im pretty sure it happens only with Aerosoft.... Tom A320 I heard about FSUIPC...... is it payware?? Because i downloaded one yesterday from a popular site. Its an older version though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted May 14, 2015 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted May 14, 2015 FSUIPC is shareware. You can use it for free with a certain set of features and also unlock all features with registration. No sure, if the joystick handling comes only with the registered version... You haven't answered the question on which OS you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klakmuf 0 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Hi with Windows 8 it is a general issue. It happens with whatever plane you fly being PMDG or Aerosoft. If you do a search on internet you will find tons of messages about it. I tried to fix it with FSUIPC (registered version) but I found it very complicated so I quitted. Best solution so far seems to go back to Windows 7 What will happen with Windows 10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangerobert 11 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Which site is it? Here the link to download (always) the new version http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html and this is the support forum http://forum.simflight.com/forum/30-fsuipc-support-pete-dowson-modules/ I' m posting it here, as at the time I did not find it easily ...

Rafal Haczek 1612 Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Here the link to download (always) the new version Thank you, Roberto, but I think you misunderstood my question. I know where to obtain FSUIPC installers and I always have the latest version. I was asking captain911 where he (not you or me) got it from, as he complains it is 'an older version'. He still didn't reply though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerobert 11 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 OK Rafal. I apologise Let's put it this way: if someone here still didn't know where to find FSUIPC and related support ... we have a remind on that on my recent post.

wingchop 0 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 im sorry but I dont know if i want to spend 20 euro for FSUIPC..... i 'd rather spend it to another add-on. Is any FSUIPC for free to resolve my joystick problem? I’m also having the same issue. Don’t understand how it’s being dismissed as a windows problem if it only happens with the airbus? When flying other airplanes it works as it should. Just purchased the Airbus bundle and Mega airport Lisbon and I’m a little annoyed if the fix is having to buy FSUIPC.

Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted January 17, 2016 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted January 17, 2016 Just updating FSUIPC is not the solution. You also have to configure FSX not to use any joystick and FSUIPC to use it. Have you done that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted January 17, 2016 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted January 17, 2016 Yes, as you are going to feed the controllers via FSUIPC into FSX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted January 17, 2016 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted January 17, 2016 Actually I don't know the differences between the eval and registered version in detail. I am sure they are somewhere listed in the manual. For setting up FSUIPC there is a good tutorial on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkOg-r_MKwM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
