Is it possible to get the Saitek X45 working with Windows 8.1 64bit?

hardware windows-8.1

I have an old Saitek X45 HOTAS:

Saitek X45

Are there drivers that will let it work with my Windows 8 computer? Google is not helping!


Solution 1:

The official Saitek FTP site has a download at:

ftp://ftp.saitek.com/pub/software/x45/x45_151205_64.exe

I suggest trying that, though I'm afraid I don't have this device so can't verify if it works. However, other Saitek devices I've used on 64 bit OS's with drivers from here have worked well.

Solution 2:

ftp://ftp.saitek.com/pub/software/full/Saitek_X45_Flight_Controller_SD6_64.exe

I had better luck with that install then with the other one linked to on the ftp site. It appears to have installed fine on my windows 8.1 x64

There's also a x86 driver as well ftp://ftp.saitek.com/pub/software/full/Saitek_X45_Flight_Controller_SD6_32.exe
