I have a problem I think is different from others described. I recently got a new Dell Alienware laptop described below. Because the SF2 files I moved from my old computer did not work on the new one I just purchased direct from Thirdwire, downloaded and installed the SF-2 Complete ($99.99). The game when running does not recognize input from either the keyboard or the joystick. When I start in Options and go to Controls it lets me input changes to the joystick to use the slider for rudder control and the throttle lever for throttle control. So it recognizes input from the joystick and keyboard there. However, when I go to fly in a game either "Instant Action" or "Single Mission" it opens in the air or on the runway but does not respond to either the keyboard or joystick. That includes ESC - the only way I can get out is to employ Task Manager and end the task. I know the joystick works because it does in both DCS and Microsoft Flight Simulator. So the computer should likewise be adequate. The game continues to work fine on the previous computer - it's specs are listed below also. I have tried several total uninstalls and reinstalls, shut downs and restarts etc. and everything I have found on this forum but nothing works so far. What can I do????? The computer specifics are: Dell/Alienware Alienware x17 R2 Windows 11 Home 64 bit Disk drive: NVMe PC SN810 NVME WDC1024GB Processor: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-12900H 2.50 GHz Ram: 16.384GB (15.7 GB usable) DirectX Version: DirectX 12 Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop GPU Thrustmaster T-Flight Hotas X The previous computer: Dell Inspiron G3 3579 Windows 11 Home version 22H2 Intel i7-8750H CPU@ 2.20Ghz 16.0 GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
