What to do if Thrustmaster TS-XW Racer is not recognized?

πŸ’‘ Key Takeaways

βœ“ Expert Answer

If your Thrustmaster TS-XW Racer is not recognized by your PC or console, the issue could lie with software settings or connection problems. Start by checking all connections; ensure that the USB cable is firmly plugged into a working port.

You should also check for any drivers that may need to be updated or reinstalled. Thrustmaster often provides drivers that improve compatibility and performance, so downloading the latest version from their official website is a prudent step.

For instance, some users have reported issues when using USB hubs; directly connecting the TS-XW Racer to the PC’s USB port can resolve recognition problems. If using it with a console, ensure it is fully updated to the latest firmware.

PRO TIP: Always restart your gaming system after making changes to driver settings or connections to refresh the system’s recognition processes.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider testing the wheel on another system to determine if the problem is with the device or your original system.
