    Hi all,
    My desktop gauges needles are stuttering and bouncing around.
    They do this no matter which I choose.
    They bounce from zero to the value they should be at and then go back to zero very rapidly.
    Everything used to work perfectly, then it started doing this strange behavior.
    I uninstalled, cleaned the registry, and reinstalled x-sim, but to no avail.
    The same problem still occurs. :cnotb:
    Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated!

    * The number gauges do this stuttering too.
    ** Vista64 is problem machine, but my network client x-sim on XP does gauges A-OK while the Vista64 machine has the stutter.
    I run both at same time with same gauges as a test.

    Ok, I fixed it!
    It seems that the client machine was the problem.
    When I removed it from network manager, all worked 100%

    So this is too bad since I wanted to run gauges on both machines.
    Now I moved everything back onto my Vista64 machine.

    but I am happy since now the gauges don't flicker anymore, yea!

    Hello SlickR,

    Just to understand what you did to resolve this problem; you are now running everything from one machine, X-SIM software, game and gauges, on your Vista64 system, good stuff :thbup: So what are the specs of you Vista64 system?

    Thanks
