TS2 reboots & XP & Logitech Wingman Force USB

[Terox]

Note to Forum Moderators.

Sorry for spamming, but having found the cause of my system crash, I thought it better to be more specific with the thread title, to enable others perusing the forum to find this information quickly.

For those who haven't read my earlier thread, my machine was shutting down when I was clicking the TS2.0 client exe.

Having gone through each of my hardware setups, disabling one at a time, i eventually found my Logitech Wingman Force USB Joystick to be causing the problem

As a side note to those with XP reboot problems, after I dloaded the TS2.0 exe client for the fourth time, instead of my machine shutting down, it rebooted.

So if you have any logitech devices running, perhaps disabling them may work as a quick fix for now.

Logitech Wingman Force Specs
It has 2 possible connection ports
Game serial
USB
Mine is connected to my USB
Driver = 5.1.2600.0

As of right now, i haven't tried to update the Joystick driver, nor have I tried it in the Serial Port.

I will update this post when i have a permanent Fix

Hope this helps some of you folks out there

We came to the same conclusion in this thread :

Updating the drivers to 4.20 solved it for me.

Here is the link to the download page of the drivers on one of the logitech sites :

It's a universal driver package so as long as you have a wingman extreme these will work.

Look at that , i log back on to post the permanent fix and somebody beat me to it.


Just to confirm, the universal LWS driver pack does resolve the problem
