Trouble with USB Keyboard and Mouse since todays upgrades....

Has anyone else had trouble with their USB devices since todays upgrades? I used my Saitek Eclipse II and Logitech G5 mouse no trouble today. Since upgrading to these Vista is always looking for their drivers but they don't exist and I just go with it. Tody I said don't ask again and then they are gone.

This also seemed to happen after alot of upgrades from the Windows update service. I had to take out my old mouse and keyboard (both USB) which are working fine. What the hell is going on?

You got SetPoint 4.0 for Vista? Got the one for the right version (x64 or x86)? They're available on the Logitech website and seem to be working for me. I've got a G5 and no problems.

Not sure on the Saitek (not really familiar with the keyboard), but you could check their site. Also, and this may be odd, but check the Intel site. I know with my AMD chip, there were some special AMD drivers for keyboards with displays.

Keep us up to date on things.

Yes I have it all working nicely, but still Windows insists that it is not intalled properly. Every boot I have to Ask Me Later the installation, but just continue using it perfectly.

Intel chipset USB drivers all up to date also.

Oh well I'll just have to wait and see if SP1 will help in the distant future...

There should also be an option to "Do Not Ask Again for this Device." Try that out. I had that going on with my HP printer. There was a working driver, but it was based on a different piece of hardware, so you had to click "Do Not Ask Again" to stop being annoyed on start up.

The Do Not Ask Again Option results in the device being disabled (which it informs you), so I'm left with no mouse or keyboard, which does limit the use somewhat!

Well, I'll admit I'm baffled. The idea that they'd disappear when you tell it not to ask for drivers (which it so far does not have) seems unique. I'll keep thinking and let you know if I come up with anything.

I'm not trying to be insulting here. Just checking things to dot the 't's and cross the 'i's. You've got the 64-bit drivers for both things, right?

Yes Sir, The keyboard drivers are Vista anyway, so Vista 64 = 64 bit drivers (but you'd never know)
Logitech stuff 64 yes.

It must be USB setting somewhere, the damn things work perfect but retard vista says the drivers are corrupt or not incorrect - Anyone got Bills number? How much is it for a Gates house call?

Doh! I forgot to put this in there: I found something on the Saitek forum about troubles with MOBO drivers and northbridge chipset drivers being a problem. Do you have all the latest of those?
