How can Logitech do this?
The specifications for both the G15 Keyboard and G25 wheel state:
"Windows® XP or Windows VistaT " NEITHER product works properly with Vista. The software for both of them does not install correctly or work correctly. And they are being wishy-washy about when support will be provided. How can they get away with this? Does the "Vista Compatible" certification mean nothing in reality? -Larry |

I have used both the CD provided and the download version from Logitech's
site. The profiler does not work in Vista. The base driver MAY work, but not on two machines I tried it on. On both machines, after restarting the wheel was reported as a DFP and could not be adjusted properly. -Larry "Mika Takala" > wrote in message . .. >> NEITHER product works properly with Vista.

Yep, that's what I've heard as well.
I've already replaced the G15 keyboard. I'm going to sell it. Last Logi keyboard sale they get from me. The wheel, well, I just put it on a dedicated XP machine with NR2003. I can't afford to have $300 paper weights. It is simply unbelieveable to me that a product just released THREE months ago doesn't work with the latest OS. Did Logitech forget to pay their Developer dues and didn't have the info they needed for the last 3 flippin' years? Vista was not a suprise to anyone.

What is worse Larry, is that I knew My sidewinder was NOT going to work
'for ****' with Vista... AND since it kinda has been left in the bad place since XP service pack2 (wasn't even technically for XP at all you know...) So I know (I bought it) Im going to Vista, because I have to, get used to it (already geting calls on "how do I...?") you know... So I buy the G25, thought you guys said it worked LOL... I didnt double check and I wouldnt have noitced that small bit on Logi website about game controllers, looking at 1st. Damn it, I could have saved 300, since g25 sounds like is as worthless in Vista as my MS wheel, which at least worked (could NOT change any settings though) when I upgraded XP to Vista on my test machine. I hate Dual booting but I am stuck there I guess. Larry enlightened us with: > Yep, that's what I've heard as well. > > I've already replaced the G15 keyboard. I'm going to sell it.

Could it be that you guys talk about WinVista 64Bit only ? What I heard is that the 32Bit version of Windows Vista works fine. Daniel |

larry, did you see version 5 is out?
Larry, are you using vista 64 bit? if so it seems the consensus is 64 bit just is NOT good for gaming. did you see this? http://forums.logitech.com/logitech/...message.id=452 and is it describing what you say your problem is? I mean that yeah the game and wheels work, you just can't change what "keypress" that each certain button sends? if so, oh well that is good enough so far for me. as long as the wheel will work.
