Ok folks ANY help that you can give would be greatly appreciated here.
I have just received my Hydra today, plugged it all in, installed the drivers direct from Razer's website, no problems occured.
Tried to use the controllers.... nothing happens.....
I have tried pressing 4 (on the right control) to activate in windows, nothing, any other button and moving... nothing...
Load up a game thinking if it detects a game (Bad Company 2) it would kick in.... nothing....
Uninstall and reinstall drivers, same thing, run on different computer, same thing.
I looked at windows 7's devices and printers page and clicked on settings for the controls, nothing shows up in the resulting window, no buttons to test, no axis to move, I can't even choose calibrate.
I am currently waiting on portal 2 to download and also waiting on a reply back from Razer support but any help you folks here can give me would be greatly appreciated!
I've already had problems with couriers delivering my Hydra, I don't really fancy going through the hassle of returning it as well...

wasn't any good for me because i tried that as well.

still thanks for the reply, as it is now, i got a reply from razer support who advised to RMA the unit which i did and now i have a replacement that works.

YIPIEE!

Just a reminder: Using both the Razer and Sixense Beta software simultaneously will cause issues. Because of this the Sixense Beta software will detect and attempt to close any other MCE software runnning.
