hangdog13 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 It's been a few years but I'm trying to get back into siming. The last program I ran was Widows XP. I now have Windows 10. When trying to download my throttle quadrant I get a message "device Description Request Failed". I have researched this problem and have tried just about everything I could find to correct this problem. Is it me or has Windows 10 done something that doeskin allow this device to be recognized? I sure would like to use my throttle quadrant but ism beginning to think I'm wasting my time. Someone please tell me i'm wrong and give me a fix to this nightmare. .

The Saitek throttle should be recognised - and work - as part of Windows 10. have you tried it without installing any software? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbearnolimits Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 I run windows 10 and have never had a problem with the throttle quadrant. I didn't download any software and just plugged it in and it worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I haven't needed it, but I do know it is out there for free. So yo've nothing to lose by trying it but perhaps a little of your time. ;) Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
