    Mouse software install problem

    I installed a Logitech wireless mouse (LX7) on a new Windows Home Premium PC.
    After repeated discussions, emails and downloads of Vista versions with
    Logitech, the supporting software will not install. They say a system
    problem. The software downloads and starts to install, but hangs up with
    Windows Installer "Preparing to install". Any thoughts?

    Also, I try to uninstall, but hangs as well. When try to delete the folder
    with the files, I get: Destination Folder Access Denied, "You need permission
    to perform this action".

    I check that the only user on the computer is adminstrator and that it has
    full control for the folder. Any thoughts on this as well?

    Is your account belongs to the administrators group? You will need
    administrator priviledge to install and uninstall the software.

    I have only one user on the computer and it is administrator.
