VKBDeviceConfig Failure

Postby PatVKB » Thu Feb 21, 2019 4:06

My Gunfighter MCP PRO VKBDeviceConfig.exe software (v0_89_1_8 or v0_89_25) has a problem. When I launch the ...Config.exe application the Info screen shows a "dxInputManager->Initialize Failed" error and the application will not work with any axes or buttons. The top title bar does properly see the 'VKB-Sim Gunfighter Modern Combat Pro". Also I get a Configuration Tool Error Box that pops up when I try to access " Invalid pointer operation."............... The installed firmware is v1.95B although I have v1.96 ready to Flash. Iget the same Pointer Error when I try to close the Application. This application worked well when first installed last month new.
In addition the VKB_BtnTester.exe & VKB_JoyTester.exe also give me a "DX Error" when loading and neither application see's any devices.
I use an up to date Windows 10 Pro. The Gunfighter Pro works great in DCS and I have no problem seeing the AXES & BTNS with Windows Device's in Control Panel. I have uninstalled and reloaded the latest versions. The "DX Error" for the InputManager is the only lead I have. My next option is to try to install the VKB Software and Hardware on another computer. Can anyone please give me some advice in troubleshooting this failure

Thanks, Pat

Update; I connected my Gunfighter Pro to another computer with Configv0.89.25.... Everything works great. So now I have to understand what the DX Error problem on the FlightSim Computer.
