Cougar reinstall
-
Good Day, All,
I would appreciate feedback on something. Back when I first got into BMS last May I wanted to set it up with my Cougar. At the time I had a problem with the cursor(could never get it to work), and a mysterious problem with “Error 2077”. I put it on the back burner and went with my x-65. I have a few days off, so want to try again with the Cougar, at least the stick. I have Win 7 64 bit, btw.
So, I would appreciate feedback on my plan with this…- Do the clean slate approach and uninstall everything Cougar/Foxy from my pc
- Download new drivers, etc., and is the thrustmaster site(ts.thrustmaster.com/eng/index.php?pg=view_files&gid=1) still a good source?
- Set it up, using the setup/profile in our 4.33 docs. Speaking of which, does anyone have a good “how-to” on this?
- Evaluate whether I want the Cougar or Saitek throttle.
Any feedback or tips would be greatly appreciated.

If I was in your position, first off I would install all software, then download USBDview software and uninstall/delete all references to the Cougar. Do the same for the Saitek too.
Install the 64-bit Thrustmaster drivers and software package, then reconnect the Cougar. I can send you the 64-bit software for TM that I use on Win7 if you want to PM me an email address?

Thx, Malc. I sent you a pm. I was wondering why you say to delete and redownload Saitek? It is working perfectly, plus I may keep using the throttle.

My apologies, I got the impression saitek was causing you issues. I got your PM, will send the package shortly.
