I currently have a Logitech keyboard and mouse. I bought new ones today.
Under the Keyboard and Mice entries in Device Manager there is the Logitech driver as well as a HID compliant yadayada driver.

Should I uninstall both drivers and then install the new Logitech drivers and reboot?
I've read where quite a few people ran into trouble when they uninstalled the Hid drivers and I don't need any of that right now:))

Thanks

If you installed logitech software, then uninstall that and let it removes its stuff. Otherwise, don't mess with it. When it detect the device is no longer connected, it won't load that driver anymore. And yes, don't mess with HID stuff.
