Logitech Gaming Drivers
Sep 21, 2009I installed Windows 7 RC 7100 on my gaming rig a couple of months ago. All was well until I got to the Logitech Gaming drivers for my Rumblepad 2 and Force Feedback Racing Wheel. Using Vista x64 drivers my system crashed repeatedly (cant recall exact error message)
The logitech website says that most Vista drivers will not have any issues with Windows 7, however I am a little apprehensive about reformatting if the problem occurs again.
My questions are:
1. Is anybody else having the same probs?
2. Is there a solution to this?(apart from not installing Windows 7)
I really liked the the look and feel of Windows 7 however not being able to use game controllers on my gaming rig sort of defeats the purpose.

Jan 16, 2013I am the guy you all know who is basically a computer retard. I know where the power button is and how to surf the web but most of my computer experience comes from gaming consoles. Recently I bought a pc with the intention of getting into pc gaming as I was informed that it was a better all round experience.In our office there are 2 people with macs and 2 people with windows. We would like to start gaming against each other over a lan router as we are stationed in china and finding games can often be a nightmare. I would like to know if it is possible to do this and how we would go about it

Jul 22, 2012When i game the game will freeze sound still plays but mouse everything locks up. Have to warm reboot. Other times it goes to black screen, and still have to warm reboot. I had this problem starting a year ago. At that time i did mem test, cpu stress test, gpu stress test, all came back fine. Back then it use to reboot itself. So, i figured maybe a psu issue, it was still under warranty so i sent it off, they did find a bad capacitor and replaced! Cool no a month after getting it back started doing as mentioned above. So, at that time i had a 8800GTX 1.5 gig video card in it. So, i spent the money and went to a Geforce 560 GTX 2 gig, eventhough i had stressed tested the 8800. Ok so a week or so went by all good then it started up again. Only has it locked up once while not gaming. Always locks on WOT(world of tanks unless i use the older 275 nvidia driver) DIdnt use to lock up with Diablo III, TSW, SWTOR, SCII. Untill recently sometimes its once or twice a night others its 3 or 6 times. I ran a Mem test a week ago ran for 9 plus hours no errors.

Aug 6, 2012Had this issue a few weeks ago, couldn't fix it. I got fed up and reformatted thinking that would solve a driver issue...but the problem persisted. I finally resorted to swapping out my ATI 6870 to an NVidia 8800 and the problem ceased...for awhile. Now it happens once or twice a day, only while gaming or some other intensive process. I do not know what to do.

Jun 4, 2012As I am finishing up researching different parts for my gamer, A horrifying thought: I forgot to add in an operating system! I just hate to have to spend another 100 dollars for one but I know I have to. Any ways to get one cheaper? keep in mind that it is a gamer, so I will need to get a recent one. NOTE: I do not exactly make money as fast as other people, (I am 13) so keep in mind an extra 100 could set me back months.

Jun 14, 2012This is just where people can offer their thoughts and opinions on windows 7.
1: Is windows 7 really the best for gaming?
2: Do you think windows 8 will be better than windows 7 for gaming?
3: Why do you like windows 7?
4: Why do people hate Vista?
5: Is XP dead?
6: Why do Gamers still stick with XP?
I have been using XP Pro x64 for a few years now and the latest games have been mainly optimized for vista and 7. And XP x64 is a very early version of x64 operating systems which has a few Compatibility and driver issues. Since Game companies are heading for directX 10 and 11 will this perhaps make XP obsolete for gamers? But what about Vista? When i upgraded from XP to Vista specifically for DX10 i noticed that i had a huge decrease in performance, even in DX9. People say that this is because of Vista's Aero Interface, I find this hard to believe considering windows 7 has an even more complex Aero interface and performs much better in an gaming enviroment.

Feb 17, 2011I know that windows xp gives better performance in gaming but i really like windows 7 for its media center and for all the eye candy stuff.Act im not sure if my specs are good enough for comfortable gaming in windows 7 since it needs more specs than xp. My specs are: Processor:32bit Intel Core 2 Duo 2.93ghz Motherboard:Intel DG41RQ series Ram:4gb(2gbX2) ddr 2 GPU:NVIDIA Geforce 9500GT. So is it enough for gaming in windows 7. or i should go for xp.

View 2 Replies View RelatedComputer Crashes While Gaming
Jan 24, 2013My computer system crashes when I play most video games (only company of heroes and civilization 5 wont crash). I have already ran all the stress tests including memtest 86+, prime95 and furmark without any errors/crashes. I suspected that it was a driver issue so I decided to do a clean reinstall of windows 7 and then install all the drivers. It had absolutely no effect I updated my motherboard and video card BIOS but that didnt help either. I tried disabling ULPS and 2D clocks for my video card but nothing happened. The only critical event that is logged in event viewer is "kernel ID 41" (Its just a notification that my computer was shut off unexpectedly). When the computer crashes, a black screen will appear and the last bit of audio that was playing will get distorted and it will keep on playing(It will make a loud BRRRRR noise).I have to then manually restart the computer and boot back into windows.
system specs:
phenom ii x6 1050t @3.9ghz 1.46v (max temp 52C)
8 GB kingston hyper x 1600mhz memory
radeon 7850 2 GB (max temp 58C)

Jun 1, 2012yesterday i started receiving a bsod while i was playing diablo3. i was having no issues with the game, everything was running fine and all of a sudden the screen froze and the sound got stuck so to speak. after a few minutes i then received a bsod. i rebooted the computer and went back to playing. i received another bsod. i looked on the diablo3 forums and saw that this was an issue that was affecting a lot of players. but before this day i had been playing the game fine for hours at a time for at least 5 days. i saw that the graphics drivers may be causing an issue so i made sure that they were up to date. i still received the bsod after 20-40 minutes of playing. i tried reverting to old drivers and still received the bsod. i tried uninstalling the game and re-installing and still received the bsod. i decided to try a different game and after about 30 minutes of that game my computer crashed. both of the games are made by blizzard so i thought it might be an issue with them. however, i have never received an error before when playing the second game, which i have been playing for a year or so on this computer.i then tried watching a video on Internet and after about 23 minutes it froze and i got the bsod. i tried one more time to watch another video and this time i lasted almost an hour before it crashed. i decided to let my computer sit with nothing on the screen for almost 2 hours. when i went to open the internet it didn't seem to respond and just hung with the blue busy wheel. i was not able to open any program. i did ctrl+alt+del and got a black screen followed by a box that read "failure to display security and shut down options". i then had to turn the computer off by the power button.my computer doesn't seem to be writing dump files even though i have enabled them to be saved. im not sure how to remedy that. i have tried updating my graphics drivers and reverting to old ones. i have done a memtest and no problems were detected. i monitor my temps and it never seems to get anywhere close to overheating.i have never had a problem with this computer until yesterday. the only major things that have changed is that i downloaded diablo3 on the 25th (though i didnt start receiving the bsods until the 30th) and i have recently moved so i have a new router and internet connection.

View 1 Replies View RelatedLooping Last Sound When Gaming?
Aug 23, 2012My laptop specs are:
Dell XPS L502x
Intel I7
Intel HD Graphics Family
Nividia Geforce GT 540m
Realtek High Defintion Audio
whenever I game, eventually and randomly, my game will freeze and loop the last sound. I'm not even kidding, it loops the last like half second of a sound which is extremely annoying no matter what it is because it just sounds like a loud thud going on forever. I have to reboot every single time this happens and I think it's hurting my laptop.So many said my laptop may be overheating, so I got a program called SpeedFan, and tweaked it so the temperature offset would be negative which would make my laptop cooler. According to it, it did go cooler with the setttings before/after using the program.The left side still emits heat, but not that hot with the program?
So I was watching the temperatures, before using the program, the temperature was always around 150-170 degrees farenheit, afterwards, it said it was at like -something which the air seemed be cooler or at least the offset measure.I'm not sure if my laptop is overheating, but when I took out the piece on the bottom pinned by 3 screws, there wasn't much dust inside.This all started when I had updated my Nvidia Drivers, I really regret doing this. So stupid game GTA IV can't detect system specs, so you had to use special commands for it to realize what specs you have. If I could, I'd sue them for screwing up my laptop. Everyone told me to update my drivers.Previously, I could play games like Deus Ex Human Revolution fine,I played the entire game twice with not a single freeze and looping sound/crash. Fine.after I installed any of the new nvidia drivers from their website?Occasional freezes and looping the last sound played.It seems that when I had bought this prebuilt Dell Laptop, it had epic drivers for itself and I was never suppose to update the perfect drivers.Then, everything was messed up once I updated my nvidia driver....Maybe, incompatible with the version of my realtek hd audio, that's why i installed all the old drivers from the driver disk the laptop came with. still didn't work, they had corrupted drivers too, or something.So I honestly don't know what to do. I remember a few months ago, I tried downloading a realtek hd audio driver, wow i lost sound for 3 days straight, no one on the internet knew and kept on insisting to install other drivers when I had to type 2 lines in the command prompt.
Virus From Online Gaming
Feb 13, 2013I am now struggling with a virus that seems to have imbedded itself in my windows 7 system.I tend not to use it too regularly but the boyfriend does use it to play games in Facebook. I am running a Norton antivirus which has been pretty good up till now. The computer seems to be running fine but my email account has been hijacked and on finding this out I have checked the computer and tried to perform a scan of both the windows system and also my accounts to no avail.The desktop symbols are all in place but none of them are working. I have also tried running a scan in safe mode, once again it would not work. The task manager did not show any action with regards to the antivirus scan that I had requested it to perform.
