I have been using Vista Home Premium for about 3 weeks. Is clean installed on my 2 year old P4 3.4Ghz system, with 2GB RAM and 2x 120 GB SATA HDD. I have a Logitech MX1000 lazer cordless mouse, I had it about a year on XP with Microsoft drivers and all worked fine. Now I have Vista, I used it flawlessly with Vista with the Microsoft drivers for 2 weeks, then on the weekend I went and installed the Logitech Vista driver for the mouse (Setpoint). I did not like the way the pointer was hard to get exactly where it was supposed to be, and did not like the speed, all trivial stuff! I could not get it the way I was used to with the Microsoft driver, I shouldn't have messed about with it. I even turned off Setpoint in Logitechs control panel, letting it use the OS settings. It was not good still. So I went and turned back the driver for the mouse to Microsofts, I uninstalled Setpoint.
So now I am happy with the mouse movement again. Although I had to speed up the pointer movement to my liking as I did when Vista was new. Now when I reboot the mouse settings always reverts to the default speed, and I have to go back in to the settings to change it. Its done this for days. And yes I do press Apply.
How can I reload the original driver for the mouse as it would have been on day one, it seems to be corrupted now as far as retaining the settings when turned off?
I don't like to use Restore this week as I had installed Office and several other things this week (after the mouse was acting up). I couldn't see any reason that caused this mouse problem other than going back to Microsofts driver that day, and its done it since then.
Thank you for any help, Regards, Neil.

I've been using Vista for only a few days on a brand new Dell Inspiron E1705. When I first started using it, I installed the driver software for a Logitech wireless laser mouse and keyboard. I like the mouse speed faster than the default, but it also reverts to the default every time I shut down and then start up the computer. Any help would be appreciated.

I am having the EXACT same problem. I never pinpointed it to AFTER uninstall Logitech's SetPoint software, though, but perhaps that's what caused it. I, like yourself, loaded Windows Vista from scratch on a Dell Inspiron 6000 notebook. My Logitech Marble Mouse Trackball worked with the default drivers, but I downloaded Logitech's SetPoint software because I wanted some more functionality. I wasn't impressed with SetPoint, as the movement of the mouse was just crap to be honest. Same experience as yourself. It was just unworkable. So I uninstalled SetPoint. The mouse movement went back to being sweet without SetPoint, but mouse settings revert to their defaults after EVERY SINGLE RESTART. I use the mouse with my left hand and I set two things every time I start the computer - "Switch primary and secondary buttons" and "Enhance pointer precision". Both options turn off on a restart, thus, I'm forced to change them every time.
If anyone has any solutions, they'd be much appreciated. It's such a nuisance...
Cheers, Greg

To avoid the resetting problem, you need to uninstall Setpoint and go to the Startup memu typing "msconfig" after hitting run on the start memu. Even after uninstalling Setpoint, it still remains in the startup menu. You need to uncheck them so they don't automatically load on reboot. Once you do this, your problem should be resolved. I returned the Logitech mouse and bought one from Microsoft.

I experienced the same problem with Vista while using the Logitech SetPoint software that came with my new Wave keyboard. Removing SetPoint.exe from the startup disabled the special keyboard functions but didn't help with the mouse problem of reverting back to default settings on startup. I then disabled the KHALJMNPR.exe (which also installs with SetPoint) from startup and allowed SetPoint.exe to run at startup. Now all the special keyboard functions work and the mouse retains its settings on reboot.

I was having the same problem which is what led me to this forum. I figured it out on my own though. The solution is so much easier than you think. You guys are trying too hard for a work around. If you have Logitech's Setpoint you have two pointer speed controls. Ignore the mouse controls through Vista control panel and adjust the mouse speed thru Setpoint only. This will solve the pointer speed reset problem.
