Hi all,

I've tried posting here before to no avail. I can't seem to get this game to work on either of my computers no matter what I do, and I have no idea what else I can try. I'm currently using a Thrustmaster Hotas X, and I've attempted launching the game on both Windows 8 and Windows 10 with no luck on either. On both the Tie Fighter exe launches and then the game begins using ~40% of my CPU, but nothing ever happens. I've tried installing the patch that was suggested in another thread but it didn't help.

Has anyone else experienced similar problems?

Do you have anything else plugged into USB ports? Maybe gamepad, external hard drives, wheel or pedals, anything at all besides your kb and mouse? My game wouldn't run because it detected my gamepad instead of flight stick. Once I unplugged that, it runs like a charm.

I did have my xbox 360 controller adapter connected, but even after unplugging that I'm still experiencing the same problem. I know for a fact I didn't have any gamepads connected to my laptop, and it never worked there either.
