Hey everybody

Been a long time FT user, years! A while back,I got an SSD, and switched to
2.2, and a ps eye. Couldnt get FT to work or stick on the SSD. Install it on a normal HDD, fine. (posted in here somewhere).

Well, I just had to reinstall FT. Cl driver crashes, FT crashes, systematic re installs, I know this program, how to set it up from the moment it turns on.
Over and over... 4hrs. Then it dawned on me to put it on my 3rd drive.
It stuck! I mean reg. cleaning, reboots,forum searching, hair pulling (lol).

OK, so the answer is something on my system is being left over from un install
Here what worked for me
After un install, cleaning, I hit the registry...deleted the FT folder, did the systematic install for ps eye and FT on HHD 2...it stuck.
Un install again, registry FT folder delete, systematic install on the SSD
Its up and running, profile re insertion, back to normal but on the SSD.

I realy hope this helps someone! Im pretty good on a computer, but not a wiz!
The regestry folder delete was a shot in the dark (So I dont want to post the path and mess up someone who doesnt know, also I made a back up just in case)

The install is step by step. something crashes, uninstall and do everything again.

Cldriver4.02.1017
FT 2.2
The fix and instuctions
Win 7 64

Hope this helps someone

I have the latest driver of Cl Eye.

To make it work you have to:

1. Make sure your camera is not On by a previous failed attempt or if you let it on when you restart/turned off your computer... the Red LED means is On.
2. If it is On and you get errors when starting FreeTrack tracking stop Freeatrack (including Dummy TrackIR exe) from Task manager if necessary and then just start and stop the Cl EyE camera check program provided with the drivers. This will reset camera state back to OFF.
3. When FreeTrack is Started without previous problems first click on STREAM button... first time sett your desired resolution and FPS... I use 320x240 and 112FPS (I wished for 120 but it won't work)
4. Then press START and Freetrack should start with no problem this time.

Sometimes... extremely rare it won't work... even after this... "tradition" or "ritual" but just repeat it once more... and it will work.

If it crashes.... very very rare... make sure:

1. camera is stopped
2. restart FT but first make the ritualistic check on Stream button (just click on it and then close it)
3. Start FT and wait for it to show you the 3 LED
4. Alt+Tab back to game.
