Since updating to window 10 1511 my Saitek X52 stick & peddles are acting weird. Before the update when the computer is on, the lights on the controller's were on. Now they'll be on then go off, then once in a while they will turn on then off. If I play my flight sim game they work fine and the lights are on while playing. I don't know if it's the usb turning on/off or what. Any one else have this problem?
I've had a similar issue for many months with mine. I finally gave up and unplugged it.
Even the xbox controller now needs to be completely removed and then re-installed each time I restart my PC.
I am running on a system that was originally Win7 and I upgraded it about a year ago. I keep wanting to wipe and do a clean install, I just haven't gotten around to feeling like spending my time on it.
With mine, while I'm playing my flight sim game they work and stay on. The lights only go off/on when not in use. It's just strange. I looked in the device manager and it shows all the usb ports are working and both my stick and peddles are working. I don't know why win 10 is having so much trouble. I think they're trying to have too much security, then having a smooth windows.
