Help for Hotas Cougar
-
Hello everyone,
I’m having a Hotas cougar, but I can not install it on Windows 7 64 bit, I’ve read several tutorials including one posted by Blu3wolf, here at
forum, connect the joystick asks to update firmware, it updates, disconnect it, connect again and this message appears: Hotas Cougar Update 3.006.6 revB
An error occurred when flashing the device. Please release the trigger and run this program again.
Does anyone have any idea, what may be happening, what should I
being wrong in the installation,
Please, any tips, to solve the problem !!!
Thank you !!!

Hello Sapsan,
I already read this topic in this linnk, following the instructions of this topic, installed and uninstalled five times and could not.
Ten minutes ago, I decided to stop, let’s see if with more
Give it a try, I will.
Thank you !!! -
It sounds like you will need to flash the Cougar… you can run the Flash program from within Foxy… just make sure you disconnect the throttle before flashing the stick… there is a guide somewhere on that maybe here…??

I think that you have to reset-delete Flash memory. I don’t remember exactly the procedure…IIRC hold the trigger pressed while you connect it into the USB port. Then you can re-flash the correct firmware. Disconnect the TQS before.
Edit… disconnect…keep trigger held and plug in the device while holding the trigger pressed for at least 4 or 5 seconds after it is connected. Then release the trigger and that’s it. Firmware is completely deleted and you can flash the device again. -
Hi Igbomber,
I could not install, I’m not actually installing it on my PC, but on my wife’s (notebook).
I won it from a gentleman, he was thrown in the garage of his house. I wanted to test him !!!
When I return home, I will see how gougar behaves on my PC. No such noise connects when you connect USB, it is doing, when you are going to install the drive, you have to stop the process, because the Drive installation does not complete, I am from early stirring and nothing. -

lgbomber,
Depending on your answer, I’ll send you a MP !!!I only use TQS via TUSBA R1 and a Warthog stick 2 years now. Did you find a solution? All guides mentioned here are correct and they work depending on the problem.

I don’t know, but I have Windows 10 and TM Cougar and I didn’t need to mambojambo anything to get Cougar working. I have just downloaded and installed drivers from this site:
https://support.thrustmaster.com/en/product/hotascougar-en/
2007_hco_vista_64_rc1.exe
I have run with compability mode set to Windows Vista SP2 and ‘run as administrator’. That’s it.

Yes that’s correct. I remember a few years ago when I was using cougar I couldn’t flash it without deleting the previous installed firmware for some reason maybe corrupted file…? After deleting the flash memory everything was installed fine on win 7 64 .

Hello everyone,
I’ll wait, to get home, and try on my PC.
I counted a ten times trying on the Notebook, and nothing, not even that traditional noise when you connect USB, did.
On my PC, I also use Windows 7 64 Ultimate, best operating system !!!
Windows 10, never, never !!!
Thank you all for the guidance !!!
Best Regards !!! -
Hello everyone,
Hotas Cougar does not install on my PC, I load the driver2007_hco_vista_6 … exe, asks to connect joystick and stops loading.
Why, is it all over ??? -
Hello,
Look at this screenshot, just stay that way, do not install the drive.
Curious it !!! -
if the HOTAS is already plugged in when it does this unplug then plug it back in and it will finish loading the drivers…
