Driver station only regognizes USB 1 and 2

If you'd like to post your code, I'm sure someone will take a look at it. I suspect that's probably where the issue is.

I did swap them, and had the same issue. I even plugged them into the computer to verify that they work... they do.

Not really sure how to share labview code, in php I'd just copy and paste.. so I'll screenshot it, I guess. Don't mind the random uncompleted code, I'm attempting to implement traction control and figure how to make buttons execute code. Got to tackle one thing at a time, though.
When I attempt to use USB 3 and 4, the following is what the numeric indicators read:
Numeric 5: always zero
Numeric 6: always zero

Not exactly on topic, but i see that you are using 12 Boolean indicators to show the different buttons on the joystick. Might i suggest just creating an indicator on the output to the "Get Raw" VI (the pink wire), and it will be much less cluttered and you can still see each separate button on teh frontpanel.

Out of curiosity, are your joysticks already opened in the begin.vi?

You'll probably have this issue if you reopen those same joysticks again.

I actually haven't looked into any other vi's yet, just the sub-vi's. I've just been messing with main.vi. I'm not sure right now, I don't have access to labview right now, but I think begin.vi is only in the advanced framework?
Speaking of which, I tried the advanced framework, and the joysticks still do not work.

Sorry, my mistake, I didn't realize you weren't using the advanced framework. That's the only one I've been spending time with.

We just tested three joysticks with the basic framework, and all worked. If a simplified example will not work after a reboot, I'd diagnose it as a HW problem.
