I recently tried to install logitech webcam to my windows 7 computer and I think I must have plugged in the device before installing the cd software. It never worked and I can't remember exactly what the reason was now, but I didn't know I had to uninstall the old logitech webcamera I had previously installed. I am guessing that was part of the problem. I was able to uninstall the new one from my PC but the old one will not uninstall, When I try to do it the installshield wizard doesn't do anything, the blue thingy just keeps going in circles and won't advance. I tried it several times. I can't get it off of my computer so I can put in the new one. What did I do wrong and how can I fix it?

    Can you locate the start up items for the original web cam and disable them?

    To identify what loads when you boot use Autoruns (freeware from Microsoft).

    With Autoruns you can uncheck an item, which disables it from starting, or you can right click an item and then delete it. If you uncheck you can recheck to re-enable the item. It is a much safer approach than editing the Registry and better than using msconfig.

    A useful feature of the programme is that you can right click an item and select Search Online to get information about the item selected.
