About a month or so ago, had a lady friend who did some things to my PC (I don't know what all), that well, "Did some things" to try to make it "work faster." And got most of the issues resolved with a Tech Support system that I now have of the online/phone call variety.
OK, here is my new problem, and do not know if it is RELATED??? First off, I have a Logitech Extreme 3D PRO joystick. Circa 2004 or so...obviously nothing fancy...but has always gotten the job done for me (and don't have a CLUE if this is the problem, OK?).
But HERE is the CRUX of the problem. Whether I fire up into a "saved flight," at such-and-so airport with engines dead, whether it's a stock FS9 plane or an HJG 707, one of the few payware planes that I have, or even my old AlphaSime "Marine One" or plain-vanilla AlphaSime Sikorsky Black Hawk--just WHATEVER--or, into a "Create Flight" situation, and I start the engs, they start up and go into about a 50% power and N1 setting. And I can shut them down into an "Idle Setting" using the keyboard, but, once I add even a bit of power with the joystick throttle, or--can't recall whether it's doing this on the keyboard but I think THIS AS WELL???...right back into a 50% power situation. So that my plane is of course basically "out of control." And I get so disgusted that I just GIVE UP. And so, haven't flown in quite a while. And, I'm actually not sure if this started before/after the "adjustments" made to my PC? [I WAS having some prior trouble on certain "Saved Flights" in which, say, I'd changed the panel on the plane, and would find that say if it was a 4-eng...well...a 707 using the stock 747 cockpit, but also, say, a 757 using the stock 777 cockpit?
...then I'd have a problem wherein the throttles, HALF of them would have this "half throttle situation" and be out of balance, but, if I changed planes and then resaved "Saved Flight," that seemed to clear it up).
But now, it seems like ALL engs are now upon cranking, fire up at half throttle--can get them down to true idle speed with the keyboard with F1--but once I try to taxi out by adding a bit of power, then, right back to being "STUCK at 50% Power" I AM. :-D
So, does ANYBODY from this wonderful HJG Family/Community--have any ideas for me? As to how to get out of this JAM? As I'm very discouraged. And while I'm no "expert," I'm NOT a "novice!!!" Not a "newbie." Simply that I don't know how to get out of this relatively new JAM that has kept me "out of the air" for a few months, now. :-( Any ideas, trouble-shooting tips, or what have you would be GREATLY APPRECIATED for this "grounded pilot!!!" ;-)
