Well, how those two things are related I have no idea! But I updated my vid card drivers to the AMD Catalyst 12.5 Betas, and now my Track IR 5 software is crashing on startup. Every once in a while it won't when the PC boots into Windows (I have it set to start with Windows). However, if I exit the Track IR 5 software and try to open it again, it crashes every time.

Any suggestions other than rolling back my vid card drivers? I really like this Catalyst set...

You have to de-select triple buffering in the catalyst cc.

Yup, triple buffering was the culprit! Thanks. I made an ATI Tray Tools profile for it... I like Triple Buffering for many of my OpenGL games.

You're welcome! Got stuck on that myself and thought there was some problem with my track-ir. Unplugged and re-installed a few times before I decided to consult the internets like an adult :-)

What's strange is, before I always had Triple Buffering set. I guess now with these new drivers, it's actually being enforced by AMD/ATI!
