    Hi I recently join to this forum, I built three months ago a simulator like frex one, it was working fine, my configuration was scn5 actuator, USB-rs485 adapter with FTDI driver, windows vista, and X-sim converter and X-sim extrator. This configuration was working great until my PC death. Yesterday I tried to rebuild my configuration in a new one pc with windows8, and sim tool game manager and engine, then surprise the actuator were not detected. I downloaded the latest FTDI driver 2.8.30, I tried with the TBVST tool, with different COM configuration nothing, and I installed again x sim converter and nothing. Someone has an idea how to fix the problem.

    Thanks ntroncone.
