    You might want to download the latest drivers from here, are your errors being caused by the Logitech install or did you already have problems ?

    nope no problems they started as soon as i installed and went as soon as i did a full uninstall. then tried to reinstall and the errors came back.


    i have use the latest drivers and they make no difference still crash the pc.

    i think i will have to return them to ebuyer. i bought 2 one for me and one for my mum and dad but i think with the problems i will just return them!!!

    I was going to suggest that you install on a friends pc and see if they produce the same errors, that would indicate a fault with either the hardware or software. Have you tried installing on your parents pc, does that generate the same errors ?
