Ok. I am Italian and i bought VR920 a couple days ago to use it on Flight Simulator X my great passion!

So. I installed all as mentioned in manuals. Bonus games works properly ( i tried two of that) but...when i launch iWear Monitor it begins to show the bar in the middle of the window with the first part covered by advance blue bar (it probably search for 3d program i think). Then it stops immediately to work and crash (application does no answer) !!! In the first line of the small windows on the left appear Microsoft Flight Simulator X ... nothing on the right. Only that program appear even if i installed all bonus program. So ... obviously...i m not able to use VR920 in virtual cockpit because does not work. Must i wait for many minutes? i do not think so

I tried to uninstall and reinstall 2.3 version and upgrade to 2.4 but no changes. It seems like program do not found Flight Sim x even if it s installed in the correct folder.......so it cannot write his file to use 3d.

I have a CompaQ 4 GB RAM ATI catalyst (?) graphics card and VISTA Home Premium. VR920 works with bonus program so i do not think is a driver problem but iWear Monitor problem. I m not a very genial technician but somone of you have any idea what is the problem?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my poor english

Well...i finally solved my problem about crashing of iWear Monitor. Simply iwear tried to copy some files in a non correct position (document and settings subdirectory). I have Windows Vista Home (not XP!). There s no any "Document and Setting" Subdirectory. So i copied part of these files manually (some file were in the correct position). I find the exact position of fsx folder in which put some .cfg files but at the moment i do not remember address folder. I installed FSX in the standard folder...so...i think it s a bag of i wear monitor.

So. It worked ... but i was really disappointed about maximum graphic setting available (640x480) and (the most important thing) the distance and dimension of display. I was expecting much more better than the reality. I m also a little bit blind (i wear glasses) so you cannot use VR920 with glasses because you increase distance and instruments are very very small, i was not able to read anything. Probably with a very small cost they could insert some lens adjusting to put your sight on focus.

Well, i have decided to use 30 days refund. I prefer to wait more development of this interesting product... i personally think it s not enough to say...i fly in a real virtual sky.
