I cannot get this to work

PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
I am asking anyone with knowledge of X-Sim who would be willing to share my desktop to find why I cannot get this to work
I have been trying for two weeks and nothing.
Bernard has been trying to offer advice and help but the absolute frustration is now to the point I will take anyone who can troubleshoot this issue from my desktop.
I have about 15 screen shots of error after error when using the Commander.
So today I tried to get the actuator to move with just X-Sim and here is the result...ZERO

Following are the steps I took:
Uninstalled X-Sim /Commander (for the forth time) and ran a reg clean to remove and entries.

Loaded X-Sim software
Connected Left & right actuators
Opened x- sim only
Ran Force Profiler
When loaded chair moved back slowly then shot forward

Ran the test tutorial and both actuators passed

Also from the interface settings menu:
Tested one input in the input list
scn5-sn-98004950 position out > Set at 15% > Set Output > Actuator responded
scn5-sn-98004950 Acceleration > Set at 15% > Set Output > Actuator did not responded
scn5-sn-98004950 Speed Output > Set at 15% > Set Output > Actuator did not responded

scn5-sn-98004953 position out > Set at 15% > Set Output > Actuator responded
scn5-sn-98004953 Acceleration > Set at 15% > Set Output > Actuator did not responded
scn5-sn-98004953 Speed Output > Set at 15% > Set Output > Actuator did not responded

Question: when I entered the actuator serial number in commander should I include the letters SN or just the numbers shown here
(I entered the letters as well when I set up the commander)

Question: in all found interface plugins should the NO Plug be checked

Loaded Force sender

Set RFactor from dropdown
Pointed to exe file

Tried to send data > Injector not detected after 15 mins I disconnected; I would assume this is a major issues what can I do next?
Tried changing the IP address in the sender to match the IP in the profiler > Injector not detected

Tried to start game > Game loads no Actuator movement.


Gave Up had a drink kicked the Hamster

My set up is as follows
Vista 32 & 64bit Dual Boot
GTX 295 Graphics
I7 Quad
12g ram
(I have been trying to get this to work in the 64 bit as I have the FREX software that works loaded on the 32 side)

I appreciate the superiority of the X-Sim software is but I just cannot get it to work

If anyone would be willing to try to talk me through this PLEASE call me 954.581.1785

Thanks for ANY help anyone can offer

Please do not enter the SN characters into the Commander Setup Wizard. The only letter acceptable letter that I have ever seen in the serial number is an A. In the case of your serial number above, just enter the 98004953 and 98004953 portions of the serial number. I will add logic to future versions of the Commander to automatically strip unecessary portions of the serial number if accidentally entered.

If you entered anything other than the numeric serial numbers (or serial numbers beginning with an A (Not Applicable in your case)) that I mentioned above into the Commander then this is the reason why you are having difficulty with it. However, this should not affect your attempt at using only X-Sim without the Commander. There is likely to be some other issue here as well since X-Sim alone is not working on your PC.

Here are a couple of common things that people overlook that I will address in the next version of the Commander:

-Is the xsimplugin.dll in your c:\program files (x86)\rfactor\plugins folder?

-If you are using GTR2, has the [drivername].plr file been altered to contain usesharedmem=1 instead of the default usesharedmem=0?
