This has been happening to me since i put win 7 on. I only have WOP and IL1946 installed and it was crashing with out TrackIR enabled.

Has anyone else experienced problems with this software? BTW, this was following a complete re-install of the OS (WIN XP 32 bit SP3) and Nvidea drivers, etc, as I thought it may have been a duff registry or driver issue.

Anyway, I have removed the SST software and mapped the stick directly to the functions I need with no intermediate software and everything now seems fine. However, I remapped one of the top hat switches as a shift Key for IL1946 and the instant I hit the key - Blue screen of death ('Bad_Pool_Call' but sometimes 'Driver _IRQL_Not Less Or Equal'! Really hacked off so I checked on the internet and found a lot of threads concerning SST, conflicts with TrackIR and causing PC instability. Not so much with IL1946 but frequent blue screen crashes in WOP. Suspected for a while that the SST software was causing the Blue Screen of death on my PC.

from the large serial connector they used for the X36 and X45 style HOTAS in the past. It is sad to see these great products being held back by weak software. Saitek, the makers of some of the finest joysticks in the world. I'll have to try giving thier tech support a call sometime, at minimal to get a message through to the dev team to try and fix this issue (or even become aware of it if they are not). But when I tried to log back onto the forums it turns out they had deleted my account and banned my email adress :/ But what I find even more disturbing about it all is that I remember signing up to Saitek's offical forums and I thought I asked about this issue last summer. Sadly this is about as much help as I can provide since I contacted Saitek's support by email last spring about this and have not heard anything back on it. It Appears to be a nasty bug in it that causes locking and BSODs when you try to program your own shift keys. It is interesting to see that somone else is having a similar issue with another Saitek product. Until I started trying some fancy macros with my Cyborg V7 keybaord in dosBox, like yourself I assigned some of the C-Keys (programmable buttons) as a 'Shift Key', and it is instant BSOD as soon as I press one of the keys I assigned to be a shift key. And for the most of my gaming needs the SST software dose the job just fine. And for the most of it I cannot complain about them, some of this stuff is coming to be arround 7-8 years old now and still functions fine through all the abuse and usage. Now I currently own an X45, Command Unit, Gamer's Keyboard, Cyborg V.7 Keyboard, and RAT7 mouse. I remember having the (X45 or similar model at the time that was for the actual game-controler/midi port, not USB) back in the late 90s as a kid, the SST software was so buggy causing random lockups and BSODs that we ended up just returning the joystick back to the store.
