Thrustmaster MFD Issue-Resolved

[WWCraven]

Good thing I don't have any hair cause I would have torn it all out by now I'm in the middle of transferring all my files/programs etc from my old HHD to the SSD I just got.  Other than it being a pain in the backside it's going slowly but fairly well.  Of course there's always that one F'ing thing that makes you cry and for me it's the F16 MFD that won't stay "connected".  As soon as I fire up the Target GUI and pick the profile within 10 seconds it stops the script because the MFD is "unplugged".

Anyone else having/had this issue before?  I'm pretty sure it has to do with the USB ports but I can't seem to get a handle on it.  Not using a powered hub, everything is used off the mobo.

Any insights would be appreciated.

Wish I could help you Les, but I don't use the TARGET software.  Does it work without setting it up through TARGET?  I know that is just a workaround, but that will be able to tell us if this is a software or hardware issue.

Are you using a USB hub or is it plugged directly into the motherboard?

As long as windows isn't  allowed to adj usb power, sleep, etc, via windows  settings, then here is a tool to play with.  Its an old version, but powerful, be careful with changing things.

Got all that stuff turned off in Device Manager.  Will look at this and give it a try, thanks Plague!

K, got it sorted, at least for now.  Took Chunk's initial suggestion and removed the MFD from the TARGET profile.  Tested and all whispers work so as long as it's programmed through Team Speak then I have no issue with the profile script for the Warthog dropping off.

Thanks everyone for the assist.
